First 100 Days Achievement Rana Tanveer HussainÂ
The government has set a new standard with its first 100 days in office and across various sectors. The first three months under their leadership were record-breaking, according to Rana Tanveer Hussain, who added these achievements have laid down strong foundations for future success.
Restoration of International Relations
Pakistan’s international ties need mending after they were strained during Imran Khan’s tenure as prime minister — this was one point repeatedly underscored by officials including PM Sharif himself. But none other than Federal Minister for Industries & Production Rana Tanveer highlighted the significant progress made towards rebuilding these relationships this year under PM Shehbaz’s watchful eye.
Critique of Imran Khan’s Policies Rana Tanveer Hussain
Rana Tanveer Hussain singled out policies implemented by the PTI-led govt as detrimental to Pak-China relations while crediting them with the country again seeking assistance from the IMF. In his words, ‘these actions reversed our gains towards self-reliance.’
Accountability and Transparency Rana Tanveer Hussain
He said all evidence points to mismanagement on the part of former KP CM Imran Khan before calling upon current rulership at the federal level to hold him accountable for what will follow such decisions—implying there’ll be negative consequences that could adversely affect many people should nothing be done about it now.
Economic Stability and Development Goals
The Federal Minister hoped that no Pakistani administration would ever need another IMF program, suggesting a move towards economic stability through sustainable investment instead of recurrent borrowing from foreign countries every few years. He also highlighted some major development goals planned by the government under Shahbaz Sharif’s leadership.
Successful Visit to China Rana Tanveer HussainÂ
He also referred to a successful recent visit by Pakistani high-ranking officials, including himself, accompanied by other ministers. During this visit, they held important meetings with Chinese counterparts, discussed different areas of cooperation between the two countries, and signed MOUs on various sectors, which will boost these relations even more in the future.
Focus on Investment Over LoansÂ
The federal minister said that investments should be the priority for Pakistan rather than loans. He added that the government wants to attract investment for sustainable development projects so that Pakistan can become an attractive place for international investors.
