ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 29th Jan, 2019 ) :Minister of State for Climate Change�Zartaj Gul Wazir�Tuesday said Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) was hatching conspiracies over the matter of establishing Southern Punjab a province.

The last PML-N government had not established Southern Punjab a new province despite of having two third majority, he said talking to a private news channel.

The minister, terming the establishment of Southern Punjab a new province as a serious issue, urged all the political parties to avoid doing politics over the issue.

He said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government got heavy mandate from Southern Punjab and it was fully committed to make it a new province. "We are trying to take PML-N and Pakistan People's Party (PPP) on board over the issue."Zartaj Gul said the previous Punjab government had deducted the Southern Punjab budget and the same amount was utilized in construction of Metro-bus and Orange Line Train which was injustice with the people of Southern Punjab.
