All the voters want is good governance and accountability

ELECTIONS are just around the corner and political rhetoric is the order of the day. Targeted election manifestos are expounded. Achievements related to GDP, national debt to GDP, budget deficit and inflation figures coupled with analyses by global ratings agencies are disseminated on a regular basis. These reflect our achievements on the economic front.

Politicians, depending on which side of the political divide they fall, in pursuit of their agendas tend to look at these achievements in the prism of negativity and short-sightedness.
