LAHORE: Punjab Finance Minister Hashim Jawan Bakht has directed the department concerned to make new pension rules for the newly-recruited government employees while the unutilised funds of the government institutions in the banks should be for resources generation.
The volume of the development budget could be increased for the next fiscal year by increasing the government revenue generation from these funds and public-private partnership. The minister said this while chairing a meeting Tuesday to review the unutilised resources; released budget and current financial situation of the ongoing financial year.
The meeting was attended by Finance Secretary Abdullah Sumbal, Additional Secretary Mujahid Sher Dil and other officers concerned of the department. The minister observed that exaggerating the volume of the budget by manipulating the number was not a miracle rather utilisation of the released budget was important. T
