Governance in KP at lowest ebb, says Tarar

ISLAMABAD, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 18th May, 2026) Federal Minister for Information Attaullah Tarar on Monday called out the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

government for its bloated cabinet expansion, saying the new additions would not bring about

any difference to the province's management.

The minister, in a post on X, said governance in the province was at its lowest ebb and virtually

non-existent.

He said that the province was plagued by rampant corruption and 'royal' expenditures while public

funds were diverted toward political interests.

He further questioned the criteria for the expanded cabinet, asserting that the appointments were

based on incompetence rather than merit.

Tarar expressed serious doubt that increasing the number of ministers and advisors could fix a

system that had failed to deliver for over twelve years, noting that the province’s affairs have

never been in such worse state.
