Pakistan
He says 'incompetent people’ given reins of power
NAROWAL (Dunya News) – Federal Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal said on Sunday that the coalition government had saved the country from default through concerted efforts.
“Pakistan’s economy would take the road to progress due to a proper roadmap which has been formulated,” said the minister while inaugurating the development division in Narowal.
Talking about the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, he stressed that the project was supposed to life the people by attracting the foreign direct investment while claiming the PTI government ruined the pace of project due to which the FDI remained standstill.
Mr Iqbal highlighted that ‘incompetent people’ were given the reins of power, and they, in turn, wreaked havoc to the economy adding a dishonest person was given the certificate of honest which resulted in diminishing FDI in the county.
He said the PML-N government added 11,000 megawatts in the country electrical system that decreased loadshedding besides providing opportunities to investors.
