PM expresses government's determination to reduce poverty

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan expressed the government's determination to reduce poverty in the country.

Speaking at the launching ceremony of the Data4Pakistan portal in Islamabad on Tuesday, he said that no country can progress if a significant part of its population lives in poverty.

He said that a civilized society is known by the standard of living of its poor.

Imran Khan said it was the first step in finding the ways and means to fight poverty.

He said that this portal will help identify the areas that are most in need of funds, in addition to finding other vital statistics on the problems faced by local people.

Criticizing the policies of previous governments, the Prime Minister said that the realities on the ground were not taken into account at the time and that more than fifty-five percent of the Punjab budget was spent on the development of Lahore only, while other provincial cities were ignored.

He said that we will focus on equal development in all areas.

The Prime Minister said that Data4Pakistan will also contribute to higher level policy making as well as budget allocation.

He said that the allocation of the budget will be on the basis of need and merit, without any political or other influence.

Earlier, the special assistant on poverty reduction and social protection, Dr Sania Nishtar, said that Data4Pakistan, the first such initiative in the country, provides open and public access to a space portal interactive that contains poverty estimates for each district of Pakistan, as well as more than 120 development and policy indicators.

She said the portal currently contains six sets of data on poverty and development in the districts, covering the period 2004-2018.

This portal will be a very valuable resource for federal, provincial and district decision makers for decision making.
