Statement Regarding Employment Was Misquoted: Fawad

ISLAMABAD: The federal minister for science and technology Fawad Chaudhry explaining his statement regarding jobs in state institutions said that his statement was presented out of context as he had the view that provision of state jobs was not the solution of strong economy.

“PTI promised to provide 10 million jobs but it does not mean state jobs and if it happens that not only government but state organizations would themselves collapsed,” he said adding that government onus is to create job opportunities as government works force is only six per cent in employment while 94 per cent jobs are private.

Lashing out PPP and PML-N governments, the federal minister said that it was their government tradition to give jobs on the political basis that caused the collapse of the government organizations as PIA and Pakistan Steel Mills are the examples of their obsolete policies.
