| [Pak Daily Times] Interior Minister Rehman Malik warned public departments to improve within a week and put an end to corruption, adding that the government is determined to take stern action against corruption-plagued departments after November 7, a private TV channel reported on Sunday. "Any office, be it WAPDA, FIA, Passport Immigration, NADRA or CDA or wherever it is responsible for public dealing, corrupt officers of these offices should mend their ways. After November 7, our covert action will start, we will have zero tolerance and the government will take action against the terrorism of corruption," Malik said while presiding over a meeting at the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) headquarters. "The government has taken corruption as terrorism and we'll fight it on a war footing," he said, adding results of the drive would be seen in the next two months. "Corruption is everywhere, in every government department, and this action shows they were not doing it before," he said. Malik stressed the media to help the government eradicate corruption from society, saying he knew the scale of the menace. He directed the agency to adopt a zero-tolerance policy regarding criminal activities, saying that the process of accountability would be started from the FIA. |
