Restore trust

Each year, taxes collected from ordinary Pakistanis are wasted on financing state-owned entities which always earn nothing but losses of billions of rupees. The next elected government should take steps to privatize these entities and spend the taxes collected from the people on their uplift. The country cannot be put on the track of development unless the state decides to address such primary issues. 

It is high time for the political parties to review their policies and to ensure that public money is spent on the welfare of the people and development of human resources. Most Pakistanis have already lost their trust in the country’s political system and the ongoing political crisis and uncertainty regarding the upcoming polls has further aggravated the situation. It is incumbent on any political party which comes to power to consume its energies to restore the trust of the electorate and to take the country out of this economic and political quagmire.
