Time to deliver

Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani said on Thursday the government would soon strengthen the cabinet besides reshuffling the portfolios of ministers. Prime Minister mentioned his 100-day plan to resolve problems of the common man, and hoped the government would fulfill people's expectations. So far the government has proved inept in dealing with problems of the people. Instead of seeking an increase in expansion of the cabinet, coherent measures need to be taken to bring stability in the economy by reducing prices along with improving security situation within the country. The government has had enough time to settle in and now should do its utmost to improve the situation. People are now more politically conscious and aware and will not elect them if they continue to perform the way they are doing right now. -ZULFIKAR SAEED, Islamabad, via e-mail, July 11.
