RAHIM YAR KHAN: The Tehreek-i-Istaqlal (TI) will support the restoration of Bahawalpur province -- a demand which is part of party’s manifesto, says central president Rehmat Khan Wardag.

At a press conference here on Sunday, Mr Wardag said the restoration of the province would benefit a population of 15 million. He said that for the speedy justice the Supreme Court benches should be established in every divisional headquarters.

He criticised the sugar mills’ owners allegedly part of the PTI for delaying the crushing season.
