QUETTA - Chief Minister Balochistan Dr Abdul Malik Baloch has said that coalition government was committed to bring a tangible change in agri-sector as it was the main stay of economy of the province.
"Government would utilise all funds transparently for the development of all sectors in Balochistan, including that of agriculture and this time the government is accountable to the people but it should not be blamed for the mistakes committed by previous governments," he expressed these views while addressing a seminar organised by Balochistan Zamindar Action Committee, here on Tuesday.
Chief Minister said the issues of farmers are genuine which are being given due focus as agri-sector could bring a huge change in the province once it was put on right direction. "In order to address the load-shedding I personally monitoring the work on Dadu-Khuzdar and DI-Loralai Transmission Lines," he added. He said that a project of 300MW solar energy had been chalked out with Korean company which would be installed in Kuchlak area that would help minimise load-shedding. "Government would also help convert tube-wells to solar energy," Chief Minister added.
He said that Rs 5 billion had been allocated for purchase of bulldozers, adding that government would also help farmers to install date and other fruits packing systems in the province.
