Sanaullah was talking to media in Lahore.
LAHORE (Dunya News)- Punjab government has deactivated ten public limited companies after Dunya News Investigation Wing unearthed Rs80 bn scam case, reported Roznama Dunya on Friday.
Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah has confessed to closing of Punjab Saaf Pani Company and Punjab Land Records Authority. Sanaullah further informed that provincial government has asked auditor general to initiate audit at earliest.
“Delay in audit is due to auditor general and not because of Punjab govt”, said Sanaullah while adding, “Complains were received of making payment more than original amount by Punjab Saaf Pani Company and 22 people has been arrested in this regard”.
Sanaullah claimed that Punjab govt had achieved targets after formation of companies while action was taken against reports of corruption.
“Public money worth Rs291 bn has been saved by Punjab govt in 14 major and big projects”, added Sanaullah.
