The ineptness and lack of vision of the government is evident from the fact that Rs 500 million has gone down the drain as costly mobile scanners bought by the Interior Ministry have been rusting at Islamabad Police Lines for the last 10 months. The mobile scanners were imported from China a year ago for installation at Capitals entry points.
Such an amount of money had been spent on scanners and then they were abandoned as if Rs 500 million was not a big deal. I appeal to the government officials that to use these hi-tech scanners for the sake of this terrorism struck nation. These scanners should be handed over to the police force as soon as possible.
