Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pervez Khattak has announced a grant of Rs100 million for Tehsil Takhtbhai, district Mardan unveiled a developmental package included the construction of sports complex, degree college, women cadet college and other projects in the area.
He was addressing a big public gathering at Takhtbhai during his day long visit to District Mardan. Provincial Ministers Muhammad Atif Khan, Deputy Speaker Provincial Assembly, Dr Mehr Taj Roghani, MNA Ali Muhammad, and MPA Iftikhar Mashwani also addressed the gathering.
Pervez Khattak said that his government was mandated for eliminating political interference in the public sector institutions, bringing an end to corruption and corrupt practices and giving a transparent and open governance system. His government succeeded on this front, he added.
Criticising ANP, he said that they did politics using the name of Pakhtuns but Haider Hoti and his companions brought this province to be ungovernable federating unit. The previous rulers did politics in public sectors institutions and therefore destroyed the whole system of governance. He said that his government revamped the public sectors institutions making them subservient to the will of the people and these public sectors institutions started delivering.
Chief Minister said that the past of the province has a history of rampant corruption, political interference in public sector institutions and deprivation of helpless people of the province but the present of the province under the PTI government speaks a different story. There was no political interference and this province had a system of reward and punishment. He said political interference and corruption had been relegated to the past and now the people are getting relief. He stressed that his government had a vision for the future of the people and the province and that was prosperity and development and where justice will be given to all and sundry, merit will rule supreme and there will be complete rule of law.
Pervez Khattak regretted that primary education and health were neglected areas in the past where the rulers did politics but under his rule, these sectors were the top priority areas. His government spent 21 billion for arranging missing and other upgraded facilities in the primary schools throughout the province, while another 15 billion had been spent on upgrading facilities in colleges throughout the province. Billions were being spent on improved healthcare centres throughout the province, he added. He said a system has been established which has inbuilt mechanism to deliver upto the people's expectations.
He also highlighted the Sehat Insaf Card under which 1.8 million families would be extended free health care up to Rs 0.5 million. He also spoke about the autonomy of police and other public sector entities making them to deliver in consonance with the people's aspirations. He also spoke about the legislation that eliminated corruption and corrupt practices and the misuse of power and authority.
Later, the Chief Minister visited the residence of Ziaul Islam at Hoti Mardan where he condole the death of Fakhrul Islam. He stayed there for some time and prayed to rest the departed soul in peace and heaven.
