PTI regrets over closing of mausoleum on Iqbal Day

Lahore: PTI President Punjab Ejaz ch speaking on the occasion of the anniversary of Allama Muhammad Iqbal said Allama Iqbal’s vision was to make a welfare state and hence that it is written in the constitution of PTI that the concept of the welfare state given by the founders of Pakistan Allama Iqbal and Quaid-e-Azam will become the pillar of PTI governance in the country.
