Lahore, October 16, 2021 (PPI-OT):Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has said a balanced diet is a fundamental right of every human being. In his message, the CM said the PTI-led government has taken steps to ensure that the food needs of the common man are fulfilled because food autarky was the responsibility of the government.

In this regard, a close collaboration between the government and the private sector was necessary; he maintained and observed that wastage of food should be avoided to avoid food shortage. For this, the people should be sensitized about changing their food habits and the rich are duty-bound to share their bounties of life with the needy around them, the CM maintained.

The purpose of celebrating this day is to expedite efforts for overcoming food shortages. We should also reiterate that every effort would be made to meet the food needs of the people, concluded the CM.
