PM Shehbaz stresses 'charter of economy' for export-led growth through unalterable policies
The premier says owing to the limited time, the incumbent government was focusing short- and medium-term plans

Islamabad: Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif Tuesday while reiterating his call for a Charter of Economy, said it was high time all the stakeholders joined hands to formulate an unalterable policy framework to make the country achieve agro-based and export-oriented growth.
The prime minister, addressing the Pre-Budget Conference here, said the enhancement of exports and agricultural yield, and financial management should be the major components of the plan.
The conference gathered agriculturists, information technology experts, businessmen, investors and agriculturalists from across the country who shared their proposals with the government relating to their respective areas.
“All of us will have to move collectively. The government will need guidance from the stakeholders and experts. The govt will form task force on agriculture and exports for formulating comprehensive plans,” he said.
The prime minister said owing to the limited time, the incumbent government was focusing short- and medium-term plans.
Citing the successful economic growth of Bangladesh, he said being rich with immense resources, human talent and dedication, Pakistan could also achieve excellence through efficiency and modern techniques.
He thanked the experts for giving their input during over six-hour long session.
The prime minister said owing to the non-execution of plans, Pakistan lagged behind while the other nations like India excelled by following its development plans.
He said in 1991, Pakistan’s rupee was stringer than the India currency but in current scenario, there was no comparison.
He said Pakistan lagged behind because the development plans remained unexecuted.
“It is up to the government to execute these suggestions. We have to convert them into reality. This will not be realized until there is a political stability,” he remarked.
