Naya KPK | News & Updates on the development in KPK.

I believe what the article is trying to say is that the amount of revenue KPK has gotten from 2013 to 2014 "32.8 billion in the first half of 2013-14 as against Rs 11.9 billion in the corresponding period of previous financial year." meaning they got almost 3 times more revenue in the first 3 months of 2014 compared to the full 2013 year. With that in mind the surplus budget is good in this case since they will have more money to spend for later on. I was really surprised after reading this article, it seems to me like Asad Umar is most likely behind such a move.

im not sure. the article says:

KP government’s overall revenues after spending stood at Rs 32.8 billion in the first half of 2013-14 as against Rs 11.9 billion in the corresponding period of previous financial year.

so the article itself does not say how much the revenue increased and how much the spending. it might be that the revenue has increased but spending might have declined even further to give us a figure of 32.8 billion.

not a very informative article to be honest.

here we go. this is from the State Bank's recent quarterly report.

look at the development spending. except sindh, every other province has reduced their development spending by more 1/3rd. Tax and non-tax collection has increased by three fold in KPK which is what it is being praised for by the SBP.

what is even more interesting is that the Total expenditure in punjab has gone up despite a huge fall in the development spending. I wonder where is the efficient administration of Shehbaz Sharif. Current expenditure has gone up by 16% in punjab where as in the other provinces it has only gone up by 8 to 10%. Non tax revenue has also fallen in punjab. suggesting that the revenue of the govt owned enterprises in punjab has declined.
Look at sindh. Non tax revenue has almost disappeared. It is now even less than what KPK earned in the previous year.

more revenue collection as compared to 2013. which itself is a good thing.. less expenditure in the first half of the year would increase the revenue in itself for the rest of the half year... so its not as bad as it may seem.
they are playing smart here by being very efficient and not spending unnecessarily.

very pleased to hear this news :D

current expenditure is not a bad thing if spent on health and education
punjab spending is better in those fields

Punjab way more money compared to other province, and they could have been way more efficient in their spending.
 
These youth are seeds of a future generation that would be well versed in English and result in positive educational movement in Pakistan congrats to KPK minsters and Imran Khan for positive move
by the way pathan education standard is better than all other provinces

25% Pakistan making progress , and hopefully other 75% will also make good , there is also some good news in other areas
 
CHARSADDA: The education department has planned to enrol 71,396 out-of-school children, including 44,240 girls and 27,156 boys, in the district from 2014 to 2015.
