Struggle approach towards good governance is a key to overcoming the challenges in Pakistan related to security, growth, and equity.<\/h3>\n<h3>Pakistan is confronted, at present, with a variety of governance issues . i.e.. Fiscal gap, administrative gap and Policies gaps, which have become a hindrance in the smooth and sustainable development growth. In recent report of World Economic Forum Pakistan is at rank of 124 among more than 144 countries on the index of improvement.<\/h3>\n<h3><em><strong>The pillar of Pakistan institutions on the basis of rank are under as follow : institutions (115), infrastructure (116), macroeconomic environment (139), health and primary education (117), higher education and training (124), goods market efficiency (97), labor market efficiency (130), financial market development (73), technological readiness (118), market size (30), business sophistication (78) and innovation (77).<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<h3>This portrays a weak picture of governance at national and international level. Pakistan needs to review its policies regarding the efficiency and effectiveness of governance at all levels with a serious concern for development and growth in both short term and long term.<\/h3>\n<h3>It is an established fact that poor governance leads to lack of voice, weak accountability, no transparency, political instability and corruption in a number of ways.
