Corruption at its peak.

To be sure, when it comes to accountability and corruption, the PML-N has remained largely disinterested. Whatever the senior party leadership may claim, the operation in Karachi now appears to be fully military-run with minimal civilian input. As for the power sector, signs of incompetence and possibly corruption are growing. The fiasco over the Nandipur power plant; the inability to ensure new and adequate gas flows for the upcoming winter; stalled reforms; opaque pricing mechanisms — the power sector that was the sole focus of the prime minister himself in his first months in office has not shown the fruits of competent, professional management.
