Former federal minister Humayun Akhtar Khan clarified on Sunday morning that he has not backed down from the demand for the establishment of an industrial zone in his constituency, and vowed to continue his efforts to fulfill this long-standing demand for the economic development of the area.
Speaking to local leaders and visitors at the party office in Tandlianwala during a visit to constituency NA-97, Khan stressed that practical steps for regional development are driven not by official positions but by good intentions and determination.
The former minister also highlighted his continued advocacy for the farming community, pointing to the demand for a system to provide farmers with storage facilities for their produce and access to loans against stored crops.
He expressed satisfaction with the Punjab government’s recent progress on this front, calling it a “welcome” development that addresses a critical need of local farmers.
During his visit, Khan also attended social events and participated in the Walima ceremony of the son of Tandlianwala Bar President, Mehar Sakhawat Ali Fatyana. Additionally, he offered condolences to the families of several deceased individuals in the constituency and prayed for them.
