At least in Punjab, there must be a new police which supervises already existing police. Then Naya Pakistan will come into being.
Anyone who joins police must be polite and respectful to the common people but specially to the victimized women.
There must be a training of them regarding ethics, manners, language and human rights care.
Though in almost all the areas of public service, mannerism is missing but at least PTI as they claim, must pay special attention to police.
Make police new.

What's the point of appointing so many cabinet members 'Without Portfolio'? If you don't know yet what they will do, why appoint them at all?

Now the time starts for PTI to deliver and pay back to its Voters and Supporters Through Good Governance.. Till Now Loadshedding issue specially in Peshawar is unattended and unresolved ( Sorry to say ) . In Previous Tenure of KPK Govt , we used to hear that Fedral Govt is not giving its full alotted quota to KPK due to which shortfall is facing by the people but now that query must be addressed as we are having PTI Govt in Fedral as well.

@Harmony-1© I totally agree with your point. 'Keep it up and hang on tough', is not applicable in this situation as decisions and process are not tough to take.
