He directed RPOs and DPOs to ensure uninterrupted issuance of driving licenses in all districts of the province including Lahore.

He directed the Punjab Information and Technology Board to make the licensing system more active and said that the burden on the system should be removed due to the tendency of the citizens to obtain driving licenses in record numbers.
