PM Imran Khan refers India at Lahore Technopolis

Lahore, Pakistan: Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has showered praise on India during an event in Lahore saying that within 15 to 20 years, Indian tech exports boomed to $150 billion while Pakistan's could reach only $2 billion.

The Pakistan Prime Minister had made the remarks while addressing the inauguration ceremony of the Lahore Technopolis, a special technology zone (STZ) on December 23.

Khan stressed that all businesses had faced a downturn amid the COVID-19 pandemic, but profits of tech companies like Google, Amazon, and others multiplied.

“Unfortunately, Pakistan lagged behind in the sector despite having ideal conditions, including a huge population of young people,” he said, adding that within 15 to 20 years, Indian tech exports boomed to $150 billion while Pakistan's could reach only $2 billion,” The Express Tribune quoted the Pakistan prime minister as saying.

He said that Pakistan's tech industry could help overcome the country's current account deficit by boosting exports as well as addressing the issue of unemployment if the sector was incentivised and facilitated.

“The project would help provide incentives to the tech industry and bring ease to businessmen, in accordance with the government’s vision,” Khan said.

Pak PM lauds China for anti-poverty mission
The Pakistan prime minister also lauded the Chinese model of development saying that neighboring China has done immense progress in its anti-poverty mission as it lifted around 700 million people out of poverty.




“China achieved remarkable progress and steered 700 million people out of poverty by eliminating corruption and jailing over 450 ministerial-level people and enhancing exports,” Khan said.










Praise, when it's due,
Criticise, when it's due.

It's not our fault that you mostly deserve criticism.

Export of Rs. 381,000 Million or about or about 5 billion dollars are nothing in your eyes :flame:
I have worked in TCS, Infosys & know the IT industry inside out. TCS has a office in Lucknow since more than 2 decades but its almost as insignificant as it was.

Please come back when one of the Indian IT majors open an office 10K IT professionals anywhere in UP or Bihar. Kindly excuse Noida which is more 'Delhi-NCR' than UP.

That said, I do hope thatunder UpYogi regime, UP does contribute to IT exports. Bihar is nowhere in picture.

... “Unfortunately, Pakistan lagged behind in the sector despite having ideal conditions, including a huge population of young people,” ...
Ideal conditions like dollarised Generals made the country the frontline donkey on war on terror until 2014?

That I agree.
Pakistan is 'one of the reasons' many politicians get elected (or rejected) not just in India but many other countries across the world.

Trying to get off the hulk? Failed isn't it.

Yes last two times we elected him only because your previous PM(s) had praised him.
Ok then tell us that for what services you elected him as PM for first term ?? Ok let me help you for mass killings of Muslims in gujrat and because of his promise to make ram mandar at babri masque place

You yourself listed two reasons. There are many more reasons.
Trying to ensure that there no terrorist attacks or bomb blasts or riots.
Trying to marginalize enemies of India residing in India (they are a entire institution working 24x7 to make India hollow)
Trying to keep dynastic politics at bay.
Trying to promote domestic industries, businesses (do you know visa/mastercard have complained against him for promoting RuPay card?)
He has rattled the enemies of India within & outside.
I think these are reasons enough to elect him.
(Ram Mandir was not "his" promise. It was his party's promise. He merely fulfilled it when the party itself was dragging feet. Fulfilling promises is another BIG reason. It should be, dont you think? Politicians are known to not fulfil promises)

You mean "get off the hook"? I don't know what "get off the hulk" means. Nevermind.
When US left Afghanistan, there was lot of hullaballoo about it in the world. Terrorism, Afghanistan, Pakistan etc. are indeed global issues. It could topple/instate regimes. It played a role in Trump getting elected and he getting booted. It plays a role in UK, France & elsewhere also. India is no exception.

You might know the art of blame and malign and still acting like an innocent but you can't just deceive everyone. Having said that, you can vent your frustration against Pakistan Fe jumping one to another goal post but you will have to accept, not here but in lonely times, that Modi/BJP is ruling India just because of Pakistan narrative.and then the supremacy of RSS.

Only India with fake news Factor maligned Pakistan and tried to portray it part of terrorism. However, this Forum is not RSS feel good chat room. Sorry to disappoint you and the Bhaktoras cheerleaders.
