The 27 years old star has got a passionate following around the world by becoming the only Indian woman to reach a grand slam competition.

Sasta Aata Ghee Scheme: A very delayed program by the PTI government

The PTI governement in KPK has introduced Sasta Aata Ghee Scheme on the 23rd day of Ramadan. It is a very delayed program as the Ramadhan is approaching to its end and the poor and the needy will never be able to take full benefits as only less than a week is left.
PTI in general is working on politics of agitation and has no value for the poor of the province who had voted for them. Instead of concentrating on the poverty reduction, education and health related policies, they have given full effort to their politics of agitation. They have no value for the people's confidence put over them in general elections. Provinces have got almost full autonomy in controlling the system, but PTI, instead of utilizing that opportunity, beating the drum for every failure against the federal government.  Federal government is not working according to the expectations but their over all performance is better than the PTI government in KPK.
Imran Khan inauguration of the scheme was not more than a joke and laugh over the miseries of the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Imran Khan smiling over the poverty and suffering of the people in the above picture. Instead of giving them subsidy on commodities and price control, the PTI government has put the people in long ques in this tough summer Holy Ramadan for a 20kg pack of flour and one kg ghee. If this was outcome for the people, then it was really a bad experience with PTI in KPK.
Moreover, it is noteworthy, last year in Ramadan, CM advisor, Yasin Khalil was given the contract of Sehri and Iftari in the government hospitals and the purpose was to reduce poverty of Yasin Khalil who is running a catering company as well. Interestingly, this time, a flour mill from Aza Khel, Nowshera has won the contract and happened to be a close ally of CM Parvez Khattak.
