Naya KPK | News & Updates on the development in KPK.
- Thread starter Leader
- Start date
My simple request was the allocation and release of Dam projects in KPK, since Wapda does not clearly show case executive summaries that require investment for existing projects. Everyone understand the notion, that Wapda is a corrupt institution and to get things rolling requires a payment of bribery which I am not prepared to do so. IK articulated that KPK will be the stepping stone of a Naya Pakistan, where Bureaucracy will not exists and investors will not face obstacles.This simple request had no financial burden on the KPK government, but the door was shut in my face even though I have contractual agreements with these Chinese companies. Does IK have no shame, that I have been a paying member of PTI for years even before the party gained national wide recognition and this is how I am treated, when my only wish and dream was to help Pakistan. Do you know how difficult it was for me to even persuade and convince these investors who have huge businesses to even entertain the idea of traveling and investing in a province which has no security. Those MOUs are useless brother, nothing will happen as it looks only good on paper.

Uniform education system to be introduced in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa: Khattak
Chief Minister, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pervez Khattak, Thursday said that in the light of the vision of the chairman, Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) a uniform education system is being introduced in the province, which will begin from the upcoming academic year.
He expressed these views while talking to PTI's elected public representatives and office-bearers from Swat and Dir Upper here in his office. Senior officials of the provincial government were also present on the occasion. Terming class-based education system as foundation of classed based society, the chief minister said that the new education system would help abolish the difference of rich and the poor in the society. In the current education system, the children of rich people become politicians, bureaucrats, doctors and engineers while the children of the poor become only constables and clerks, which is sheer injustice and cruelty.
There is no country in the world where education is given two different languages with two or three different curriculum. But, unfortunately, it is only our country where this system was practiced. He said that they are determined that they would change this system.
He further said that the practice of the transfers of schools' teachers would be abolished and attributed the consecutive transfers of teachers as basic cause of the declining standard in educational institutions. The chief minister also highlighted reforms introduced in the departments of health, revenue, excise, public health engineering, irrigation, agriculture, tourism and others and urged the elected public representatives, party office-bearers and government officials for working in shape of a team for the implementation of this agenda of change in their areas concerned.
The chief minister said that the present provincial government is establishing an independent, autonomous accountability commission in the province, which will carry out indiscriminate accountability. The Accountability Commission will be fully independent and autonomous, which on the complaint of a common man will conduct proceedings even against the chief minister. He said that they do not believe in political victimization in the name of accountability. The clean, fair and impartial accountability system will abolish financial corruption and the practice of bad governance in the province.
The chief minister also told the public representatives about the 90 days performance of the provincial government, change and progress on implementation of the reformative agenda, directives to departments and other matters and took them into confidence. The chief minister while expressing his resolve for bringing change and reforms as per manifesto and electoral commitments made by the party in the elections urged the party workers to play their due role in the implementation of the agenda of change in their respective districts and extend full co-operation to provincial government in this regard.
He directed the party office-bearers for establishment of complaint cell at district level to monitor progress on the implementation of the directives of provincial government and constitute a committee to keep vigilance on the performance of government departments.

Now that's gonna be awesome, I really wish they will be able to remove this difference in education system for rich and poor and make it uniform for all..

PESHAWAR: Besides the sale of blood from the hospital’s blood bank to private
clinics, the Special Branch of the Police has unearthed other irregularities also at the
Khyber Teaching Hospital (KTH).
Copies of the investigation carried out by the Police Special Branch have been sent to the Chief Minister’s Secretariat and secretary health.One of its findings was that the staff of the blood bank, situated in the basement of the hospital, was involved in selling the blood to private clinics.
The reports was compiled after interviewing employees and observing the conditions at the hospital. It noted that the hospital has become a “major source of illegal income for a few corrupt officials causing huge financial losses to the hospital resources and the exchequer.”
It highlighted the unnecessary shops, restaurants, juice points and the ‘tandoor’ at the KTH run by people favoured by the hospital authorities. The report said that sophisticated machines like MRI machine were out-of-order when the investigation was conducted and the patients were being referred to private laboratories for tests in return for commission.
It noted that around 2,000 patients belonging to far-flung areas come to the hospital daily to the OPD of the hospital for treatment. A Police Special Branch official said millions of rupees had been spent on repairing the air-conditioning plant of the hospital but the patients and their attendants continued to suffer when it was out of order and during power outages.
“The hospital lacks own power plant or effective electricity generating system which adds to the suffering of ailing persons,” the report stated.The report termed conditions of almost all the wards, particularly the children ward, unsatisfactory, where three to four patients are accommodated on one bed, transferring infections from seriously sick children to normal kids, apparently for lack of space and growing number of patients.
It also stated that elevators were not functioning properly and sanitation arrangements in the wards were unsatisfactory. It added that toilets in the wards remain dirty. “Gynae ward and labour rooms are located on the second floor of the hospital due to which female patients (pregnant) face difficulties when going to the ward through stairs,” the report explained.
It said some doctors seldom visit the wards during the morning rounds. The report noted that sanitation staff only cleans main ways and corridors. It said the canteens run by private contractors overcharged patients and attendants.
The report said vehicle checking on both sides of the hospital and their parking was unsatisfactory. “The security system at the hospital premises is not up to the mark. Acts of terror may not be ruled out if the security system is not improved. Ward orderlies are also involved in monetary corruption/taking money from the patients for providing them wheelchairs and allowing attendants to meet their patients,” it said.It said the irregularities were earning a bad name for the newly installed PTI government because for a layman a good hospital means a good government.
