Information Minister Shibli Faraz has said empowering the masses is the objective of Prime Minister Imran Khan.

In his tweets on Saturday, he said Pakistan Citizens Portal which has linked the people with the public sector departments is a gift on the part of the Prime Minister to the nation.

He said it is the first time in the country's history that one hundred and seventy thousand overseas Pakistanis have got themselves registered with Pakistan Citizens Portal and getting their complaints addressed from the comfort of their homes.

Shibli Faraz said the prime minister personally monitors the applications and complaint redressal process.
