Muhammad Adnan, Muhammad Latif Nazar and PTI’s secretary good governance committee Col. (R) Ijaz Minhas will be the members of the council.
The chief minister chaired the maiden meeting of the good governance council at his office and discussed solutions to public problems, bringing improvements in service delivery and good governance besides reviewing different proposals for effectively projecting government performance.
Addressing the meeting, the CM pointed out that different departmental reforms have been introduced during the last two years to provide the best services to the people. The past rulers failed to do which the PTI has performed in a short span of time, he added. Instead of sitting in my office, I learn about ground realities by going to the field. I have visited Lahore last night for three hours and immediate action has been taken against the officials for showing negligence and dereliction of duty, he said. I will also conduct surprise visits to different districts and the government will go to every extent to ensure good governance, the CM added. He asked the ministers and elected representatives to conduct visits and maintained liaison with the party workers.
Usman Buzdar emphasized that no one will be allowed to create any hurdle in the journey of public service and added that feedback received during such visits help in solving public problems. The briefings given in air-conditioned rooms are different from the ground realities. Solving public problems is my responsibility as a representative of the citizens, the CM concluded.
