Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur has unveiled a comprehensive roadmap for good governance, pledging strict monitoring of all government departments and firm accountability for non-performance.
Speaking at the KP Good Governance Map ceremony, Gandapur stressed that the plan is action-driven, not symbolic, with equal focus on service delivery and holding officials accountable.
He criticized widespread disregard for departmental Rules of Business and highlighted serious issues in the education sector, including missing furniture and the unexplained disappearance of school washrooms. “No child in my province should be without furniture in school — if there is, then what are we even doing?” he remarked.
Gandapur revealed that the Education Department has Rs 33 billion in its account, yet the current minister was unaware of it. He recalled personally ensuring furniture provision in Dera Ismail Khan schools when he served as a minister, contrasting it with a recent Rs 40 billion demand just for DI Khan schools.
The Chief Minister also alleged misuse of government resources and described a “joint venture of corruption” between bureaucrats and politicians. He warned that departments failing to meet performance standards will be systematically removed.
He further accused the Education Department of embezzling billions annually and demanded transparency in the use of travel allowances and other scattered funds. “We must fix this system together,” he said, calling for immediate reform.
