LAHORE

THE City District Government Lahore (CDGL) announced establishing 100 model shops in every town where it would ensure supply of quality milk on a uniform rate.

The plan to introduce a uniform rate of milk across the provincial metropolis was made by former Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif. The CDGL Food Department was working hard to implement the plan. However, after the Supreme Court of Pakistan (SCP) sent Mian Shahbaz Sharif home, the plan to introduce a uniform rate of milk across the city shrunk to establishing a few shops in every town.

According to a handout issued here on Monday, the DCO has directed all the TMOs and officials of Livestock Department to establish these points across the city. A committee comprising six senior officials was also constituted to monitor establishment of these shops in the city as well as to arrange banners regarding the issue. It said the committee would submit a detailed report to the DCO within three days.
