Many ask – What has PTI done in KPK – I share some random updates
We must also appreciate these bills may possibly expose problems even for PTI in the long run – a random expose even caught by the media or any government accountability watch dogs will be used to hit out at PTI & Imran Khan – but PTI has been bold to implement these steps to keep itself in check.

Many ask – What has PTI done in KPK – I share some random updates
- POLICE - is independent & depoliticised – even IG of KPK has said there is no political interference by the political govt and he has been given a free hand to do his work
- PATWARI SYSTEMS - is far better then before – TV Anchor Fareeha Aziz sent an undercover camera to catch anyone taking a bribe, even journalists Umar Cheema endorsed the same fact and they the patwaris were not taking bribes for fear of being caught
- JUSTICE - The Peshawar High Court has introduced E-Citizens Grievance Redressal System — a unique justice system in Pakistan through which the people of KPK and tribal areas, especially the distressed and poor segment of society, would get justice within hours. The PHC would now receive complaints and applications just on a phone call, SMS or email through the Human Rights Directorate. The litigants would also receive reports on progress in their cases through phone, email or SMS. The HRD mostly deals with the cases of violation of basic human rights.
- HEALTH - The health system has improved significantly – patients testify that doctors are present in the hospitals to attend to their ailments. KPK gov also went through serious challenges regarding Polio and its resistance, they handled the issue and launched a Sehat Ka Insaf program during which each child will also receive vaccination against 9 preventable diseases and vitamin A drops and each family will be given a hygiene kit that includes soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, towel, water container, etc
- Sehat Ka Insaf started on 2nd Feb 2014 which immunized 485,000+ kids against 9 preventable diseases
- On 9th Feb, 63 UC were covered and the volunteers immunized 513,000 children
- On 16th Feb the 3rd campaign targeted 547,300+ children
- On 22nd Feb the 4th edition of the campaign targeted 77 UC’s across Peshawar and immunized 551,000
- Success of the Anti-Polio campaign can also be measured with the fact that sewage water samples collected on 26th Feb from areas tainted with Polio turned out to be negative for the first time in many years
- EDUCATION - Teachers are showing up in schools – those who don’t are removed & new recruits are being brought in with a condition that they are not allowed to transfer between districts. Action was taking against 605 errant/absent teachers while 62 were fired. The entire education system is in the process to be unified to present one curriculum for all schools across the province in English
- ENVIRONMENT - KPK gov is committed to improving the environment, it has launched a massive 1 billion tree plantation drive across the province and is working on preserving our natural resources
- ACCOUNTABILITY / EHTESAB BILL – a very robust & independent Ethesab Bill to catch corruption, this will even keeps PTI’s ministers in check as a deterrent from doing corruption for the fear of being exposed by the public / media
- RIGHT TO INFORMATION - allows the citizen to get gov information to keep watch and catch corruption or non performance, gauged to be one of the best RTI bills world over and also ranked to better then Punjab RTI Bill
- RIGHT TO SERVICES - allows the citizen to demand basic services in stipulated number of days (~30 days) or else the bureaucracy will be punished – Public Add
- LOCAL GOVT BILL - giving powers all the way down to the village level
- CONFLICT OF INTEREST BILL- prevents Gov officers / bureaucracy to silently bid on tenders and reap benefits – PUBLIC ADD – (Pg 1 & Pg 2)
- ELECTRICITY - KPK Government has a serious commitment to solve the province electricity crisis – for this reason it has asked the Federal Govt to hand over PESCO (management and distribution) to allow for a permanent solution
- ENDING VIP CULTURE – enough of media expose have been done to curtail the KPK Ministers VIP protocols – even the CM KPK was reported using Govt helicopter for his personal use – and he paid the dues from his own pocket
We must also appreciate these bills may possibly expose problems even for PTI in the long run – a random expose even caught by the media or any government accountability watch dogs will be used to hit out at PTI & Imran Khan – but PTI has been bold to implement these steps to keep itself in check.
