Present government believes in service delivery instead of false claims: Marvi Memon

Sukkur, May 03, 2016 (PPI-OT):The present government believes in service delivery instead of false claims. The incumbent government is playing an effective and vibrant role for provision of facilities and basic rights to public. It is just because of the sincere efforts of the Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif and Finance Minister Senator Ishaq Dar that economy is registering massive growth. If someone oblivious of the contributions of Prime Minister speaks ill of him, he would face severe resistance from us all. This was stated by Minister of State and Chairperson BISP MNA Marvi Memon while addressing a gathering of local government, notables and BISP beneficiaries at Sukkur.

She also visited the villages of Atta Muhammad Sarki, Shambo Brohi and Abdul Latif Sipar in Jacobabad which were neglected in the previous survey of BISP and talked to the women of these areas. Chairperson BISP’s visits are part of beneficiary outreach campaign just ahead of the launch of pilot phase of National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER) update.

She would also visit Nasirabad, Qila Saifullah and Quetta this week highlighting the components of resurvey for NSER update. While explaining the salient features of the re-survey to the community, she stated that the discrepancies of previous survey would be removed in the new survey. Being the directory of real poor, updated NSER would be an asset for all. Currently, Pakistan ranks 5th in terms of targeting the poor and soon Pakistan would lead the world after creating best National Socio Economic Registry.

Chairperson BISP reiterated that in the pilot phase, resurvey would be initiated by middle of this year in fifteen districts and a tribal agency namely Mirpur (AJK), Charsadda, Lakki Marwat, Haripur (KPK), Chakwal, Layyah, Faisalabad, Bahawalpur (Punjab), Jacobabad, Sukkar, Thatta (Sindh) , Gilgit (Gilgit-Baltistan), Qila Saifullah, Kech, Nasirabad (Balochistan) and Mohammad Agency (FATA). After completion of the pilot phase, national roll out of resurvey will be started in January 2017.
