Things we should know before we cast our ballots...

PML(N)’s Manifesto 2013
Before there was "Vote ko izzat do", there was "Strong Economy - Strong Pakistan", PMLN's elections 2013 slogan and manifesto.
It was a 116 pages long document which sounded a lot like a new year's resolution list of 20 something guy. And, it did turn out like a new year's resolution list, because not much was achieved. Here is the list of the major goals and concrete targets which were published in DAWN and Express back in 2013, and a bleak picture of the progress made during last 5 years.

Concrete Targets

Average GDP growth remained about 5%.

Figure for 2017 was just over 5%.

It still lingers around 11%

6) Provide, in cooperation with the private sector, 1000 clusters of 500 houses each for low income families in different party of the country. ❌
Thats about half a million houses. Almost an impossible task to achieve.

7) Reduce the PSEs loses from Rs 400 billion. ❌
Public Sector Entities (PIA, Railways etc) loses have tripled to over Rs 1150 billion per year.

8) Inflation will be brought down to single digit in the range of seven or eight percent. ✔️
Achieved, more as a result of low international Oil prices and less because of any structural reforms.

salaries, allowances and pensions. ❌
Government expenditure kept on rising and PM house kept on spending more than its allocated budget every year.

10) Industrial parks, both for large and small industries will be developed and expanded, particularly in the under-developed areas. ❌
No where to be seen.

11) To tax all income and to achieve greater equity in the tax system by increasing dependence on direct taxes. ❌

VII. Employment and Youth

47) New employment opportunities will be provided to over 3 million persons in public and private sectors including one million in the I.T. Sector and one million in SME Sector. ❌
Hard to say, because of lack of data available. But freelancing industry did boom and these are not very ambitious targets.

48) Modern gymnasia will be constructed at the District and Tehsil levels. ❌

49) Minimum wage for workers will be gradually increased to Rs.15000 per month. ✔️
Legislation done, implementation awaits.

VIII. Overseas Pakistanis

50) At least 50% of annual remittances of $ 12 billion will be converted into productive investment. ❌

If you fail to achieve 1/10 of your elections promises, you s should probably give a little more izzat to vote already.
