PESHAWAR: The Pakistan Peoples Party has alleged massive corruption in government departments of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province and claimed that the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf`s government had done nothing for the welfare of residents.

PPP provincial president Syed Mohammad Ali Shah Bacha told a news conference here that the provincial government recently presented a report on its one-year performance and falsely claimed to have achieved 25 targets duringthe period.

Accompanied by PPP MPA Ahmad Karim Kundi and other office-bearers, he said the government`s progress report consisted of the minutes of the cabinet meetings and assembly proceedings and `nothing else.

He said that the provincial government was least interested in fulfilling its commitments and wasted the last six months in staging rallies and protest sit-ins against the federal government.

`The government`s performance belies the election manifesto of the ruling PTI,` he said.

Mr Bacha said in its manifesto, the PTI had promised to make Khyber Pakhtunkhwa a corruption-free province, ensure peace and empower youth, but those promises had yet to be fulfilled.

He alleged that since Ali Amin Gandapur had become the chief minister a year ago, the levels of corruptionin the province hadincreased.

The PPP leader alleged that corruption was common in wheat procurement and recruitment in different public departments.

He resented the `poor` law and order situation in the province and criticised the PTI government for being unable to restore peace in Kurram saying innocent people are killed in the tribal district.

Mr Bacha also complained about the recent terrorist attacks in Akora Khattak (Nowshera), Bajaur and Bannu district and said the government had miserably failed to protect public life and property.

He said that the provincial government had failed to take any effective steps to improve the local economy.

The PPP leader said the province won`t receive investment unless there was sustainable peace.

He accused the provincial government of failing to initiate a single development scheme in the province and alleged that the ruling PTI was promoting corruption.

Mr Bacha said the government had done nothing for development of the education sector, creation of jobs and promotion of sports.
