LAHORE, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 19th Aug, 2025) On the directives of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif, compensation cheques

worth Rs 5 million were distributed among the heirs of a family that lost five members during

stands with the affected family and would continue to extend every possible support for their

rehabilitation,” he emphasized.

family and prayed for the departed souls.
