Govt on track to achieve 100 Days Agenda: Arbab
The advise said progress of the agenda would be shared with the media at the end of 100 days.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Adviser to the Prime Minister on Establishment Mohammad Shehzad Arbab Thursday said federal and provincial governments were working seven days a week to achieve the targets set under the Prime Minister’s 100 Days Agenda and had already achieved 35 out of 100 milestones.
“We are on track to deliver 100 milestones in 100 days by engaging with the stakeholders within and outside the government. So far we have completed 35 milestones and the rest will be accomplished during the remaining 56 days,” he told a press briefing.
The 100 Days Agenda, he said, was based on six themes: transform governance, strengthen federation, inclusive economic growth, agriculture and water, revolutionalise social services, and ensure Pakistan’s national security.
The themes, he said, had been further broken down into 35 initiatives and both the federal and provincial governments got the expert advice where necessary. He said a website “pm100days.pmo.gov.pk” had been created so that the media and the public could track the progress of the 100 Days Agenda.
“We want to be transparent. We are accountable to the public, so we have launched a website to help people keep track of our performance,” Arbab said.
He said the implementation of the agenda was being pursued both collectively at the federal cabinet and Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa cabinets on weekly basis. Its progress would be shared with the media at the end of 100 days, he added.
“After 100 days you can hold us accountable and we will tell where we stand. What we have achieved. We are working round the clock to achieve the targets,” he said.
“The prime minister recognises that we have got an historic opportunity after 22 years of struggle and he expects each one of us to make the most of every single minute at our disposal.”
On the new concept of the local governments, the adviser said the requisite laws in that regard would be framed by the Punjab and KP governments, and wherever needed, the approval of respective provincial assemblies would be sought.
