LAHORE:Chief Minister Usman Buzdar said had N-League completed the PA building started during tenure of Ch Pervaiz Elahi the need would not have arisen to hold the session in a hotel.

He said that all essential works should be completed by end of September, delay caused in some matters due to corona should be compensated by working continuously, the Punjab government will continue extending full support for completion of remaining work of the new building.
