Pakistan Tehreek Insaf (PTI) Manifesto
Important Points according to Imran Khan
“All governance in cities and towns will go to the municipality and the city government will raise independent revenue for city development. Primary healthcare for the poor and elderly will be free. The policy of fighting war for others and act as a surrogate for any power will not be pursued. Nation building will be a priority and its natural resources will be exploited for development of the country and also benefit the people living in resource-rich area.
“Pakistan’s strategic location will be used to strengthen the nation by becoming a lucrative trade and energy corridor and take economic advantage of it,”
“It is not possible for those parties to bring reforms who have themselves devastated the country. Two major political parties have taken many turns of the government but never bring reforms. These parties have not allowed the shifting of power to local level. The PTI will transfer power to grass root level by holding local government elections in three months after coming into power. Other political parties have not taken such steps just to hold the funds in their hands.”
“PTI also recognises the scourge of terrorism and its devastating effect on Pakistan in the form of intolerance, fear and hate. Hence, it stands committed to fought for the betterment of Pakistan,” said Imran Khan, adding that agricultural reforms would also be put in place and 15 percent agriculture tax would be introduced on land holding exceeding 50 acres while domestic industry would be encouraged.
“We will computerise all the land-related data and the infamous patwari system would be replaced with computerised system to facilitate the community,”
“Economic policy will be governed in a way to promote fast-paced industrial growth and ensure job creation. It will ensure that minimum wage of labour is commensurate with the inflation level in the country. To fast track development within the first 100 days, PTI will take full advantage of the natural resource of the country like copper and coal”.
