I am most indebted to Economists & Planners Group, Planning Commission for their memorable reception to bid me farewell this morning, after expiry of our government’s term. They are a pool of dedicated professionals with whom I have had a long experience of working in my 3 tenures at Ministry of Planning & Development. Thank you very much for all the support & work done in the last sixteen months. @PlanComPakistan
While it may not be the moment for jubilation as we still have a long way to go, the strides made by the federal government @GovtofPakistan in the past 16 months are noteworthy. Despite the trying circumstances, the government's unrelenting dedication has led to a remarkable transformation. With a whopping ₨2,790 billion allocated to national development, we've paved the way for prosperity. Kudos to everyone in the team, who burned the midnight oil for our nation.
Some highlights:
- Federal PSDP surged by 109%.
- Balochistan's allocation exceeded Punjab's.
- Ex Fata received ₨57 billion.
- Gilgit-Baltistan and AJK secured ₨61 billion.
- Major boosts in funding for youth, women, and vital programs.
- Notable focus on education, innovation, and skill development.
- Launch of groundbreaking initiatives to empower women and drive growth.
Credit goes to Prime Minister @CMShehbaz, whose unwavering commitment to progress of this country, youth development and wellbeing of a common man, has been unparalleled. His tireless dedication and support for his team's resources and environment enabled these achievements. His leadership made these milestones possible. Special acknowledgment must be attributed to the visionary leadership of @betterpakistan. His strategic acumen, as evidenced by the numerous initiatives highlighted in the attached 16-month report, has made a pivotal difference. Under his guidance, the Ministry of Planning Development and Special Initiatives in particular has achieved several noteworthy milestones as the establishment of technology centers, governance innovation lab, Ba-Ikhtiyar Naujwan Program, Champions of Reforms, Young Development Fellows Program any many others.
