LAHORE: Punjab Governor Rafique Rajwana has summoned the 32nd session of the Punjab Assembly on Monday, October 16, at 2pm. The Punjab Assembly secretary issued a notification to this effect on Monday. Punjab Assembly Speaker Rana Iqbal Khan will preside over the session as custodian of the House. The session was called by the governor on a summary moved by the treasury benches. On Monday, a female legislator from the treasury, Hina Pervaiz Butt, filed a resolution against the existence of a milkmen colony in the name of “Gawala Colony” in the limits of Lahore city that was spreading diseases among the residents of Harbanspura and adjacent localities. She raised a question over the progress of the district administration highlighting the said colony’s issue in her resolution and demanded to shift it to some other place with immediate effect to protect the lives of the locals. Hina also said in her resolution that sometime, the milkmen brought out their animals (buffalos, cows and oxen) on the road during school hours, which created trouble for the children, especially girls. She also expressed concern over the presence of 5,000 cattle in the limits of the city. The ruling party legislator further said in her resolution that the government had spent billions of rupees on the development projects of Lahore Ring Road, Canal Road and Orange Line Metro Train but the said colony was still existing among these projects. The PML-N member urged her provincial government that it should immediately take notice of the issue and remove the colony from the area, as residents of Kotli Ghasi, Nawabpura, Rasoolpura, Qalandarpura, Tufail Colony, Nai Aabadi and Harbanse Market were badly being affected by the same.
