National Agenda: ‘Governance needs improvement’

Governor said on Saturday that governance needed improvement in all provinces.

MULTAN: Governor Chaudhary Muhammad Sarwar said on Saturday that governance needed improvement in all provinces. He was talking to newsmen during his visit to a hospital in Cheechawatni. “Politicians and governments have to understand that problems of the masses are greater than those of the elite,” he said. He said inflation had affected millions of Pakistanis. He said the government had underestimated the impact of high prices of basic commodities on the common man. He said protests in Islamabad had taken centre stage in the national discourse and basic health and education problems of the people had been forgotten. Sarwar said the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) would end their sit-in in the capital through talks and negotiations the same way PAT had ended theirs. “We engaged in talks with Tahirul Qadri which eventually resulted in de-fusing of protests in Islamabad,” he said.
