KPK, in Comparison to Punjab, Sindh and Baluchistan
When we compare development in KPK with Punjab it is seen that in Punjab metro, transport and better roads is the only development that is taking place. In KPK we see that development in all areas from technology to education to transport is taking place.
Baluchistan has been an ignored part of Pakistan. But now it’s emerging, as it has digitalized land record system and the officials are meeting with various countries like Belgium to discuss developmental projects. Still in comparison to KPK fewer projects are going on in Baluchistan and it would need time for the province to emerge to its full potential.
In Sindh we can talk about projects going on in Karachi like Metro development is starting. The fact is that crime rate and other issues that are stagnant in the city have always put in background any development projects going on.
The fact is that….
It is hard to judge a government’s performance in its tenure because there is hardly any change in the condition of people and society as a whole. This has not been the case in KPK in the last five years. The government has brought positive changes and we should acknowledge, appreciate and encourage it. We can only hope for betterment in other provinces as well.
