The ministers, who failed to get selected for the appreciation certificate award, slumped into dejection, 24NewsHD TV channel reported Thursday.
PM Imran Khan awarded appreciation certificates to the head of the best performing federal ministries under his government in the federal capital.
Murad Saeed’s Communications Ministry topped the list, followed by Asad Umar’s Planning Ministry, Shafqat Mahmood’s Education and Professional Training Ministry, Shireen Mazari’s Human Rights Ministry, Khusro Bakhtiar’s Ministry of Industries and Production, Abdul Razak Dawood’s Ministry of Commerce, Sheikh Rashid’s Ministry of Interior, Syed Fakhar Imam’s Ministry of National Food Security, National Security Division and Poverty Alleviation and Social Safety Division under Dr Sania Nishtar.
Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Finance Minister Shakta Train, Information Minister Farad Chaudhry, Energy Minister Hamad Aznar, Ali Muhammad Khan, Pervez Khatam, Zartaj Gul, Ghulam Sarwar Khan, and Brig (r) Ijaz Shah failed to 'achieve the target'. Hamad Aznar skipped the event as he came to know that his name is not on the best performance award list.
‘Heartbroken’ Ali Muhammad Khan said the ministers who are not doing their jobs with responsibilities are awarded. He said they do not show up at the standing committees' meetings, are entitled to the award.
