KP govt releases good governance roadmap report

PESHAWAR, Apr 16 (APP): The government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has released a comprehensive report on its Good Governance Roadmap, highlighting significant progress toward a modern, data-driven governance system.

According to the report, the roadmap marks a transition from traditional administrative practices to an integrated public service delivery model, with 26 departments now operating under a unified framework.

Government priorities have been translated into key performance indicators (KPIs) and timelines, while a centralized digital dashboard is being used to monitor departmental performance in real time through a traffic light system.

The initiative focuses on 21 key public service sectors, with more than 450 reforms and over 3,800 action steps currently under implementation. Improvements have been reported in over 1,100 public facilities across the province.

The report states that weekly review meetings chaired by the Chief Secretary, along with direct oversight by the Chief Minister, have strengthened accountability. More than 6,000 field visits by Deputy Commissioners have been conducted to assess ground realities.

At the district level, 17 service delivery areas are being monitored to ensure alignment with provincial priorities.

Under Good Governance Roadmap 2.0, the scope of the initiative has been expanded to extend development benefits to every district and union council.

The reforms have introduced digital attendance verification for teachers and doctors, upgrades in school infrastructure, and improved availability of medicines in hospitals.

Additionally, support programs for widows, orphans, and other vulnerable groups have been expanded, while efforts are ongoing to modernize clean drinking water, sanitation, and municipal service systems.

The report further highlights reforms in agriculture, energy, and industrial sectors aimed at boosting economic activity and generating employment opportunities.
