ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) on Tuesday showed proof regarding a mega scandal of the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) government, asking the Imran Khan-led Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) to reply in this regard within the next two weeks.
“This is a historical mega scandal which has now been proved by the PTI’s own white paper in which it was confessed that the K-P government had invested Rs378.71 million in shares of listed companies,” PML-N leader Daniyal Aziz said in a news conference.
He said that the PTI-led K-P government gambled in stock market and lost huge money, so in order to cover that money, it fudged the figures of several hydel power projects in the province which were to be completed by 2015-16.
Aziz alleged that Rs25 billion was allocated for completion of numerous hydel power projects in the province but millions of rupees from it were squandered by investing in the stock market to benefit rich business people, including some PTI leaders interfering in the affairs of the provincial government.
“We will not leave them free in this mega scandal and will give them two weeks to take action against the culprits,” he said, adding that if they failed to do so the federal government would take action and send the case to the National Accountability Bureau (NAB).
The PML-N leader said that the PTI was committing contempt of Supreme Court by once again raising talks about planned rigging in the 2013 general elections.
The PTI had committed with the PML-N that the judicial commission’s verdict would be acceptable but now they were again creating fuss and had started threatening to resume their sit-ins on the basis of their demands of resigning of the Election Commission members, he added.
Daniyal Aziz advised the PTI to take legal route for action against the members of the poll body instead of giving threats of blocking Islamabad.
On the occasion, MNA Tariq Fazal Chaudhry said that the PTI was putting pressure upon the judiciary in order to get the decision of their own will.
He was of the view that the PTI had failed to fulfill their pledges made during their election campaign, therefore, they are creating unnecessary hue and cry.
He said that Nadra chairman was appointed by mutual advisory and the PTI consent was also involved in the appointment of the chairman but now Imran Khan is demanding resignation from him.

دوبارہ بلدیاتی انتخابات کے لیے تیار ہیں: عمران خان


صوبہ خیبرپختونخواہ میں برسر اقتدار پاکستان تحریک انصاف کے سربراہ عمران خان نے کہا ہے کہ بلدیاتی انتخابات میں دھاندلیوں اور بے ضابطگیوں کی شکایات کے تناظر میں وہ صوبے میں دوبارہ بلدیاتی انتخابات کروانے کے لیے تیار ہیں۔
گزشتہ ہفتہ تقریباً چھ سال کے بعد خیبر پختونخواہ میں بلدیاتی انتخابات ہوئے تھے جس میں بڑے پیمانے پر بے ضابطگیاں دیکھنے میں آئیں جب کہ تشدد کے مختلف واقعات میں اطلاعات کے مطابق دو درجن کے لگ بھگ افراد بھی ہلاک ہوئے
الیکشن میں اب تک کے غیر سرکاری نتائج کے مطابق پاکستان تحریک انصاف عددی اعتبار سے اکثریت حاصل کرنے میں کامیاب ہوئی لیکن مختلف سیاسی جماعتوں بشمول پی ٹی آئی کی اتحادی جماعت اسلامی کی طرف سے بھی انتخابات مین دھاندلی کے الزامات سامنے آئے ہیں۔
منگل کو اسلام آباد میں صحافیوں سے گفتگو کرتے ہوئے عمران خان کا کہنا تھا کہ انھوں نے وزیراعلیٰ پرویز خٹک سے مشاورت کی ہے اور اگر دوبارہ انتخابات کروانے کا کہا جاتا ہے تو ان کی جماعت اس کے لیے تیار ہے۔
"اگر یہ چاہتے ہیں کہ متنازع حلقوں میں دوبارہ الیکشن ہو تو ہم تیار ہیں۔"
مقامی حکومتوں کی 41 ہزار سے زائد نشستوں کے لیے 84 ہزار سے زائد امیدوار ان انتخابات میں میدان میں تھے اور ایک کروڑ تیس لاکھ سے زائد ووٹروں کو مختلف نشستوں کے لیے سات، سات ووٹ ڈالنے تھے۔
الیکشن کمیشن نے ایک بیان میں کہا تھا کہ اس نے صوبائی حکومت کو یہ تجویز دی تھی کہ اتنے بڑے پیمانے پر انتخابات کو مرحلہ وار منعقد کر لیا جائے لیکن یہ تجویز قبول نہیں کی گئی۔
علاوہ ازیں کمیشن نے صوبائی حکومت کے اس بیان کو بھی مسترد کیا کہ انتخابات میں امن و امان قائم رکھنا الیکشن کمیشن کی ذمہ داری تھی اور اس کے بقول انتخابات کروانا ایک اجتماعی ذمہ داری ہے جس میں کوئی بھی ادارہ خود کو بری الذمہ قرار نہیں دے سکتا۔
تاہم اس بیان پر عمران خان نے الیکشن کمیشن کو تنقید کا نشانہ بناتے ہوئے کہا کہ وہ اپنی ذمہ داری سے روگردانی نہ کرے۔
"الیکشن کمیشن کو اپنی ذمہ داری قبول کرے، یہ آپ کا کام ہے الیکشن کروانا حکومت کا کام نہیں ہے۔"
ادھر بلدیاتی انتخابات میں مبینہ دھاندلی کے تناظر میں پیش آنے والے تشدد کے ایک تازہ واقعہ میں کم ازکم چار افراد ہلاک ہوگئے۔
منگل کو ایبٹ آباد میں یہ واقعہ اس وقت پیش آیا جب بلدیاتی انتخابات میں دھاندلی کی شکایت درج کروانے کے لیے دو فریق متعلقہ حکام کے دفتر جا رہے تھے کہ ان میں تلخ کلامی کے بعد فائرنگ کا تبادلہ شروع ہو گیا۔ واقعے میں ایک شخص شدید زخمی بھی ہوا۔
دریں اثناء الیکشن کمیشن نے دیر سے صوبائی اسمبلی کے ایک حلقے میں خواتین کو ووٹ ڈالنے کی اجازت نہ دیے جانے پر یہاں کے نتائج کو کالعدم قرار دیتے ہوئے دوبارہ الیکشن کا حکم دیا ہے۔
گزشتہ ماہ حلقہ پی کے 95 لوئر دیر میں ہونے والے ضمنی انتخاب میں جماعت اسلامی کے امیدوار کامیاب ہوئے تھے۔
شائع شدہ اطلاعات کے مطابق یہاں 53 ہزار خواتین کے ووٹ رجسٹر تھے جنہوں نے اپنا حق رائے دہی استعمال نہیں کیا۔

Repeated lapses in KP

When the PTI Chairman Imran Khan constituted a five-member committee to negotiate with the federal government during the ongoing political crisis caused by his and Dr Tahirul Qadri’s protest sit-ins in Islamabad, there wasn’t any leader from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in it to represent the party. The negotiations committee was led by the party’s Vice-Chairman Shah Mahmood Qureshi and central General Secretary Jehangir Tareen, Asad Umar, Arif Alvi and Aleem Khan were initially named as its members. Later, the lapse was rectified an

Attack on school

Terrorists know exactly where to strike, where it hurts the most and how the narrative of terror seeps into the fabric of society. Unfortunately, the state’s priorities of protection lie elsewhere. While schools have been routinely razed to the ground by militants in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) and Fata, the authorities have done little to alter this state of affairs. The hand grenade attack on a school in Shabqadar, Charsadda, which killed a schoolteacher and injured two students on October 1, is the latest such tragedy to occur.
The threat to educational institutions in K-P and Fata is all too imminent now. This is not the first such incident and judging from the response of the authorities, it does not seem to be the last one either. Several schools in conflict-ridden areas are threatened by armed militants, who only know how to reinforce their ideology through brute force and violence. While Shabqadar is close to the Mohmand tribal belt, the situation in Peshawar has been no different. There have been incidents where schools have had to pay extortionists to keep the threat at bay. An estimated 2.5 million children are out of school in K-P, with more than 2,000 schools being dysfunctional because of the precarious law and order situation, among other contributing factors. The tribal belt is another story altogether; here, hundreds of thousands people are faced with a battle of survival, so acquiring an education is a far-fetched dream for them.
The outrage surrounding the Shabqadar incident will soon subside until another such incident takes place, but the psychological scars being inflicted upon our younger generation will not heal easily. We are told that the school will reopen soon, but needless to say, many children will drop out, as there will be parents who will think twice before sending them to the same school. One wonders if the authorities will set aside their seeming apathy and finally take some concrete measures to secure the future of our children. We will have no one to blame but ourselves if nothing is done to alter this state of affairs.

Tammer e School Programm STOPPED | میں بہترین ٹیم لاؤں گا -عمران بکواس خان

Programme to provide schools with facilities ‘abandoned’


PESHAWAR: The Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf has virtually abandoned the much-trumpeted Tameer School Programme in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as its leadership hasn’t launched an effective campaign inside the country and abroad for raising money to provide basic facilities to thousands of government schools.
Since the staging of an anti-government sit-in in Islamabad last month, the entire PTI leadership has been engaged with it setting aside its priorities, including collection of donation collection for the schools lacking basic facilities, the elementary and secondary education department officials told Dawn.
As there’s no formal donation campaign, philanthropists and well-off people, too, have lost interest in the welfare initiative.
During the first two months of its launch, the Tameer School Programme had drawn tremendous interest of philanthropists and well-off people.
Under the programme, philanthropists, well-to-do families and donor agencies own responsibility of providing missing facilities to government schools.
Currently, around 10,000 government schools don’t have electricity, 7,500 are without drinking water, 5,000 lack boundary wall and 4,000 have no washrooms, according to the official data of the department.

Officials say TSP lacks political ownership, awaits drive to raise money for it


During the TSP launching ceremony on April 30 at the Government Girls Primary School in Duranpur, PTI chief Imran Khan had said the donation campaign would be launched in the country and in developed countries for the schools, which direly need basic facilities.
Imran Khan had said donation would be collected for the schools the same way he’d done for the establishment of the Shaukat Khanum Cancer Hospital. The Elementary and Secondary Education Department had also pinned high hopes on the TSP and donation for it.
In the first two months i.e. May and June of the TSP launch, over Rs15 million was given by the philanthropists.
With the encouraging participation of philanthropists in the TSP as pilot project, it was extended to the entire province in July.
As pilot project, the TSP was launched in five districts, including Peshawar, Dera Ismail Khan, Nowshera, Mardan and Abbottabad.
However, in the previous around three months i.e. July, August and September, only Rs5 million was donated, according to information posted on the TSP website.
The programme is still there but there is no political ownership of it, so very few people come forward for helping the government provide missing facilities in schools.
The officials said it was discouraging that the rate of donation for the TSP was gradually on the decline.
He said under the TSP, donors took the responsibility of building additional classrooms, supplying water, making boundary walls, and setting up computer labs and washrooms at schools.
The official said of hundreds of schools in a shambles, only 40 schools have been provided with missing facilities under the TSP during the last five months.
According to him, the parent teachers’ councils of the respective schools are responsible to use donated funds without the involvement of any department of the provincial government.
The official said more stress had been laid on transparency as all details related to the donated funds and construction work on missing facilities had been placed on the TSP website.
When contacted, provincial elementary and secondary education minister Atif Khan said the PTI had not given the required attention to the TSP due to the launch of a sit-in in Islamabad.
“Imran Khan still says effective donation campaign will be launched to provide missing facilities in the schools once the sit-in is over,” he said.
The minister said the TSP was launched a bit behind schedule as the establishment of transparent system for donation and its use took several months.

White Paper | 1 year performance of PTI in KP

A GREAT BETRAYAL IN THE NAME OF CHANGE

  1. Tall claims were made in 2013 elections of a better governance model by PTI based on which it got elected.
  2. Since past 14 months we have not seen the “Naya” Pakistan promised neither in D-Chowk nor in KP.
  3. PTI attracted new segment of youth, women and the educated middle class into voting; but it ended up polluting their minds with hatred and introduced a politics of blames minus proofs.
  4. The idea of WP is not to attract more abuses PTI style but to open the eyes of those who claim to be educated to the failed PTI model in KP where real change could have been a role model for Pakistan.
  5. Whilst PTI has mastered the art of breaking all laws, wanting to be treated VIP by not adhering to any laws, and of conducting failed dharnas and entertaining jalsas it has not learnt how to deliver when blessed with governance in KP.



 

FAKE DEGREE | PTI M{A disqualified in KPK


An election tribunal in Dera Ismail Khan disqualified Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) lawmaker Sardar Ikramullah Gandapur Khan for contesting  2013 general elections with a fake degree, Express News reported on Wednesday. 
Gandapur had won the election from PK-67 and his opponent Fataullah Mian Khel challenged the authenticity of his degree.
The election tribunal investigated the allegations and declared Gandapur ineligible to be a lawmaker.
Gandapur secured 28,073 votes, while Khel secured 14,983 votes.
PK-67 covers the area of Kulachi in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and is the most backward tehsil of DI Khan district.

BAD Governance in KPK | WB cuts grant for healthcare

World Bank cuts grant for healthcare project due to ‘extensive implementation delays’


ISLAMABAD: The World Bank has decided to reduce the duration of a healthcare project in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa from three years to one year and curtail its grant from $16 to $10.2 million because of extensive implementation delays.
The project was aimed at improving the availability, accessibility and delivery of primary and secondary healthcare services in six districts of the province.
The grant from the Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDTF) administered by the World Bank was for strengthening healthcare services in the province, particularly in districts affected by militancy. The project was designed to bring improvement in health management.
An implementation report prepared by the World Bank says that the project has been in ‘problem status’ due to ‘extensive implementation delays’, especially in the procurement process of district management contracts.
According to the report, the project was restructured last month. Its objective remains the same, but the scope of work has been reduced due to limited time available for implementation.
One component of the project has been deleted and allocation for the remaining two components has been reduced.
The allocation of $11 million for a component of the project aimed at revitalising health services has been reduced to $8.2 million and the rehabilitation of health infrastructure component of the project has been deleted.
The allocation for establishing a robust monitoring and evaluation system at the district and provincial level has now been slashed to $2 million from the allocated $4 million.
The administrative arrangements of the project have been changed and an independent project management unit has been established in place of the project managed by health sector reform unit. The project management unit has been transferred directly under the administrative control of secretary health and the project coordinator has been given the requisite financial powers.
The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has recently finalised its comprehensive development strategy based on which a health sector strategy has been prepared.

Raise in KP lawmakers’ pay to cost govt Rs100m

Raise in KP lawmakers’ pay to cost govt Rs100m



PESHAWAR: An impending increase in salaries, allowances and privileges of the members of provincial assembly will put Rs100 million extra burden on the low-income Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
The relevant officials have told Dawn that the government is likely to table the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (Salaries and Allowances of Members) Act (Amendment) Bill during the current session of the assembly.
The government has approved the house’s special committee’s report recommending increase in the salaries and allowances of the speaker, deputy speaker and MPAs.

 

Salaries bill to be tabled in current assembly session


The report of the seven-member committee comprising the treasury and opposition members was tabled in the house in March. It had secured unanimous approval.
The report said salaries of the provincial ministers, advisers, special assistants and parliamentary secretaries were insufficient and therefore, the government should increase them.
Justifying the proposed pay raise, the committee observed in the report that majority of the MPAs belonged to the middle class and therefore, they could not survive with the existing salaries due to the skyrocketing inflation.
The financial cost of the existing parliamentary democratic system is on the rose with the provincial government spending a huge amount of money on the salaries, allowances, privileges and other facilities of MPAs though majority of the population is living below the poverty line.
The government depends on federal receipts and foreign donors for social development schemes.
An official in the know said the daily expenditure of an assembly sitting was around Rs800,000, excluding the cost of utility services, security, entertainment and other facilities.
“The proposed raise in salaries, allowances and privileges of lawmakers will cost the government an additional Rs100 million per annum,” he said.
The official said the financial cost of the democratic dispensation was increasing day by day but the performance of the members of the provincial assembly was a letdown.
“The assembly met for 105 days in the first parliamentary year though the actual working days are 72. On average, the assembly members met for two hours in a working day to dispose of parliamentary business,” he said.
He said the scenario was the worst in the parliamentary history of the province.
They said members of the ruling coalition led by Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf didn’t take interest in the house business with majority of MPAs, ministers and parliamentary secretaries remaining absent from the session frequently.
On Friday, only 10 lawmakers from the treasury and opposition benches attended the last hour of the proceedings showing the disinterest of MPAs in the parliamentary business.
As happened during the days of last assembly, the sessions of the current house begin one and half hour late daily.
When contacted, Speaker Asad Qaisar justified the proposed pay Raise in KP lawmakers’ pay to cost govt Rs100m raise for MPAs saying performance of the current assembly was exceptional.
He said the prime duty of lawmakers was to legislate and the house had passed 28 bills during the first parliamentary year.
“It will bring about a revolution in the province if the approved laws are fully implemented,” he said.
The speaker said 90 per cent of the sitting MPAs belonged to the middle class, so they deserved a reasonable pay increase in salary.
He even said he had turned bankrupt.
According to the bill, the value of every MPA’s monthly allowances and privileges will go up to Rs204,040 from the current Rs77,600.
The house’s special committee recommended that traveling allowance (by road) should be increased from Rs3 per kilometre to Rs15 per kilometre and that basic salary of an MPA should be increased from Rs12,000 per month to Rs18,000 per month.
In addition, every MPA should be paid Rs10,000 office maintenance allowance, Rs10,000 telephone allowance, Rs10,000 sumptuary allowance, Rs4,800 utility allowance, Rs30,000 house rent, which is currently zero, Rs9,000 medical allowance, Rs15 per kilometre traveling allowance and Rs1,600 session allowance (per day).
In light of the report, basic salary of the speaker will go up from Rs30,500 per month to Rs80,000 per month.
The committee has proposed that the speaker should get Rs200,000 additional traveling allowance, which is currently nil.
Similarly, it is proposed that the basic salary of the deputy speaker should increase to Rs54,000 per month from Rs27,000 per month.
Currently, the deputy speaker is entitled to business class air travel. The committee has recommended Rs150,000 additional travel allowance for him.
