In the budget, he said that Rs 5.7 billion had been earmarked for health, which is 300 per cent higher over Rs1.2 allocated in 2007-08.To a question, the CM said that district hospitals would be upgraded so that people don't have to travel to Karachi and Hyderabad for quality health facilities.

Moreover, he said that an industrial infrastructure of the province will be developed. Projects have already been initiated in Kotri, Nooriabad, Benazirabad, Larkana and Khairpur industrial estates in this regard.

The CM said that the Sindh government has already planned to distribute 50,000 acres of land among landless women farmers and provide drinking water to Badin and Thatta districts adding that special attention has been paid towards raising education and health standard and funds for these sectors have been raised significantly.

"The 50 per cent increase in salaries is a gift to the government employees by the PPP regime. The budget was made keeping in view the needs of all sectors of life, demands of coalition partners, opposition members and masses necessities, he said. The CM said the PPP has made history in the country by raising 50 per cent raise in the salaries of the government employees besides raising their medical allowances significantly. The news
