Furthermore, the Chief Minister extended her congratulations to the Pakistan Army, Navy, and Air Force for their successful Operation Bunyanun Marṣoos, praising the leadership of Field Marshal Asim Munir for strengthening national security.

Maryam Nawaz also highlighted several initiatives that demonstrated the government’s performance in recent months, including the largest flood evacuation operation in Punjab’s history, aided by the use of advanced thermal imaging drones. She explained that the province also took bold steps to combat smog by importing 15 smog guns, while also expanding access to healthcare with modern ablation machines for cancer patients.
In addition, she shared the government’s progress in agriculture, particularly through the mechanization of farming, which has increased productivity and efficiency for farmers across Punjab. According to her, these reforms reflect a long-term vision to strengthen food security, promote sustainability, and uplift rural communities through innovation and access to better technology.
The delegation, which included officers from Pakistan’s armed forces and 47 participants representing 26 countries such as Australia, the UK, China, the US, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey, praised Punjab’s welfare-oriented projects.
