May 16, 2024 (MLN): Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has directed authorities concerned to constitute a cabinet committee related to the development budget and Public Sector Development Program under the Planning Minister.

He was chairing a meeting yesterday in connection with matters related to the Planning Ministry and Public Private Partnership Authority in Islamabad.

Shehbaz Sharif also directed to improve coordination and linkages between the federal PSDP and the annual development plan of the provinces.
