Pakistan’s
story of exceptional GDP growth in the last few years seems
like a fairy tale turned into a reality. The current
Government in Pakistan, nourishing under the shelter of
khaki shadows, inhibited by the virtue of phrase, “Controlled
Democracy”, has been arrogating it as a result of
their immense and prudent economic policies. The financial
authorities of Government of Pakistan, enthusiastically,
international financial institutions and macro-economic
indictors, technically and independent resources partially
confirm the claims of GDP growth. There are various major
concerns regarding the GDP growth in Pakistan. Given all
the political and social disasters, the sustainability of
these economic indicators is being questioned throughout the
country by the political leaders, electronic and print
media, newspaper columnist and independent economists.
Furthermore, such incidents of violence and political
conflicts are constantly shattering the confidence of
investors. Nevertheless, it is evident from all these
traumas that government of Pakistan is perhaps living in a
fantasy world and trying to paint a highly unrealistic
picture of very short lived and un-certain socio-economic
scenarios faced by the country (Deep; 2005: pg.1).
