Pakistan: PM Imran Khan admits he failed to bring promised change

India Blooms News Service | @indiablooms | 11 Feb 2022, 10:30 am

Islamabad: Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Thursday admitted that he has failed to bring the promised “change” in the country that he had made when he came to power, due to “faults” in the system, Dawn reported on Friday.

Khan said, “In the beginning we wanted to bring change immediately through revolutionary steps, but later realised that our system was incapable of absorbing shock.”

He further admitted that his government and ministries had failed in delivering the desired results to the people.

“The biggest problem is that there has been no connection between the government and the interest of the country,” he admitted.

“Are our ministries performing how to stabilise the country through increasing exports and how the condition of the people can be improved, how poverty can be eliminated?” he asked.

Khan said increasing exports, finding import substitution and alleviating poverty were the priority areas for his government.

He stressed on the need for putting in place a system of reward and punishment and said that powers of the National Accountability Bureau had been reformed allowing bureaucrats to take initiatives, stressing that now bureaucrats have no excuse for not “signing pending files”.

He said effective policy-making and good governance was important and asked the ministries to keep the national interest at the forefront and adopt “out of the box solutions” to deliver on the promises.
