PM's aide orders smooth supply of subsidised flour.

MANSEHRA -- Adviser to the prime minister on political and public affairs Amir Muqam has directed the Utility Stores Corporation to ensure smooth provision of subsidised wheat flour to the people across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

'Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif wanted an early, uninterrupted supply of wheat flour to people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa at subsidised rates, so we initiated its supply at specified points and are opening more and more such points to the relief of the people,' he told a function here on Saturday.

On the occasion, the USC officials briefed Mr Muqam about flour supply in Hazara division and other areas of the province.

Mr Muqam, who later left for Kohistan region, ordered the establishment of sale points for subsidised flour even at village and neighbourhood council level and said he won't tolerate any compromise on quality and quantity.

He said he would visit other districts of the province as well to ensure smooth flour supply to people at subsidised rate.

Mr Muqam visited sales points and checked flour quality and bag quantity.
