Has Imran Khan Brought Real Change in Pakistan?

Last Updated: April 08, 2014

Young people like me never really cared about Politics in Pakistan since October 30, 2012. That was the day when with thousand others I started liking politics and became a part of Imran Khan’s “Tsunami”. Our slogan under PTI’s flag was “We Want Change”. Many things have changed since and now I along with hundred thousand others have a question in mind. Did Imran Khan bring real change?



Being the second most voted political party all over Pakistan and clean sweeping in KPK; Tehreek-e-Insaf became the party to establish government in KPK after elections 2013. Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI); the single largest party in KPK with 45 out of 99 seats; the party gained another 10 seats through allocation which increased its total seats to 55. We were promised that there would be a change in education and health system, security threats will be diminished, moreover electricity and economic crises along with unemployment would be minimized, such that, KPK government would be an example for the governments in other three provinces.

So far now reforms like the following have shown a great start to the change process promised by Imran Khan to us.

  • HIV/AIDS control Programme.

Under the leadership of Imran Khan KPK government has delivered reforms like above in a short span of time. It is planning to deliver future mega projects like, Shaukat Khanum Hospital Peshawar, 2 European style cities near Abbotabad, Metro Train system and electricity generation plants for the country. Other future reform projects include CCTV footage system, permanent check posts, token system in prisons, women complaint cell, school of investigation and intelligence, FM radio for police, and latest and free healthcare facilities and neutral healthcare foundation.

With long term policies like above I am very satisfied by the work done and to be done by KPK government. It would not matter if Punjab Government will try to impress us with their short term projects like Metro Bus system or Laptop program I will definitely support KPK in future elections. No doubt Imran Khan has brought real change in KPK and will bring change in Pakistan in future.
