Moreover, keeping in view the public service delivery of government entities, 27 key performance indicators (KPIS), including block Khewats, demarcation, pending mutation cases, revenue collection and retrieval of state land have been identified for district administrations while nine KPIS including actions against drug peddlers, street crimes, murders and theft cases have been identified for police.

Furthermore, in the first phase, KPIs have also been identified for different provincial departments including health, home and tribal affairs, excise and narcotics control, local government, energy and power, livestock and dairy development, mines and minerals, relief and rehabilitation and public health engineering.   

Addressing the ceremony, the caretaker chief minister lauded the efforts of cabinet members, chief secretary and his entire team for materializing this flagship project in an effective and timely manner.
