Only 45pc of annual KP development budget utilised till June: CGPA

[Husnainshah]

I'm not surprised. PTI has no policy to begin with
All I've heard in the last 2 years is police 'ghair-siyasi' hogae hai and a bloody election and that too controversial.
Imran, in particular, follows every anti-state policy.
Be it with regards to Taliban, Protests, Infrastructure or Development in general.

Personally I don't agree with Metro Bus at this stage as well but at least Mian Sahab has priorities, that's debatable whether or not they are right, unlike Imran. What good is cash in account when people in dire need of it?
This sold out Media says Building Metru Bus projects is like living in a big house on empty stomach. I say, Not building infrastructure, or any development in general, is like living on a street on an empty stomach. I'd choose the former, if I must.

They are renovating old hospitals and modeling them on IK's working SKM hospitals:

There is not much we can do with these 300 small dams when your Nooni Toons sitting in Federal government keep on obstructing this initiative:

Seriously? You guys even have any shame left?

Are you insane? Twitter sahersaleem007 is not a source.
I stand correct 0 new hospital built considering a mega project like metro and Bahawalpur solar project can be built in one year why can't you build hospitals and energy projects. Its just incompetence and corruption.

There's a thing called project management...try learning something about it....

Unlike in PMLN, PTI does not award projects to their friends in Metro business. All development projects are tendered publicly and the best builder for the job is approved for the job. Of course, it takes time to develop huge projects and project management is not something only PMLN ministers can do anyway

Are you insane? Twitter sahersaleem007 is not a source.

Are you dumb? There are many older sources that validates my claim and disproves your BS:

PESHAWAR: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa elementary and secondary education department has planned to establish 1,000 community schools in the province for primary education as a stopgap measure until educational institutions are established in the requisite number.

Bahawalpur solar project was built only to disallow further investment in Solar power generation

Metros are useless considering their building cost per km, they are not even remotely cost effective as other development projects, yet alone profitable

Its just incompetence and corruption.

LOL Corruption is when people's money is used by government employees to enrich themselves. Name one corruption case in KPK development schemes which was not taken care of by the government? We have an independent NAB there that does the job if corruption arises:

This is not actually a bad governance. Wasting money on non-viable projects without proper management is a bad thing in the long run.

I have heard about this from others (some PTI guys) too. Hope this is the case.

You are so dumb you can't even differentiate between planned and completed. Please enlighten me how many of them 1000's school built so far and running classes? lol Zero

Atleast it was built, now its producing 100MW and by the mid of 2017 it capacity will be increased to 1000MW. Massive reduction in load shedding.

Exactly that's what KPK government doing, they investing public money in stock exchange and banks which is against the law and corrupt people will get away with profit and interest.

You lost the argument my friend, you just don't have guts to accept you people are wrong and trying to save face by making up stupid things.

Don't worry they'll spend all of it on advertisement as usual.

Its not a shame if KPK government is actually taking time and effort to actually plan these projects properly unlike Nooni Punjab government with its lavish spending on Metro BS.

Actually, they are utilising it just fine. Stop blaming PTI for the mess caused by PMLN already!

Not being able to use the development project doesn't mean bad performance unlike PMLN which does overdraft on the budget every year and still can't deliver on its promises!

Yeah, imagine that. You would then see no cherished Metros of yours, would you?

They are parking money because project planning takes time. They don't wanna blow up planned development budget with twice or more of the original cost as your PMLN do in the province and federal level

My friend I will leave this question to you, What exactly is the development budget?

For me, it is the development of country which helps you grow economy in the long run. Imagine your business has yearly turnover of 4000 and your expenses are 4800. You borrow money from somewhere to expand business and increase your income. Then if you don't use that money for investment what is the point of borrowing it in the first place where you might have to pay back with interest?

The Government of Pakistan has very limited budget due to financial constraints so its comparatively easier to invest your little budget. We can invest in various sectors such as education, health, energy, transportation, infrastructure, agriculture, industry and research which helps create millions of jobs throughout the country. When the government is not able to utilise whatever little funds they have, it shows their incapacity to work for the benefit of people at larger scale. It is not only about PTI, there has been several political parties in Pakistan who has not been able to utilise the development budgets in past particularly in education sector where half the funds were left untouched in the account after the completion of fiscal year.

If we go by our demands, Pakistan can easily invest 100 billion dollars in must-have hydro power projects, another 100 billion dollars in education and health and so on so forth. But when the government is too busy planning for the projects despite being in power for 2 years, it is a dangerous sign for lack of vision by the political party. PTI was campaigning for schools in KPK and seeking donations and see you could have easily built 1000 more schools for 10 or so billion rupees by using the money in your hand allocated in education budget. It is the fear of corruption that pegs the political party behind and has happened with former political parties in Pakistan. You have to begin from somehwere and if the planning will take 5 years, you might already be out of the government so there is no point be so curious
