further increase,” Farogh Nasim said, adding that soon it will be
tabled in the parliament and the provincial governments should also
fully support it and pass it form the assemblies. Sharing major
points, the minister said any individual being the whistle blower can
share information with an independent commission against any
corrupt practices and his name will be kept secret besides the
person will get an award of 20 percent of the recovered amount. He,
however, said that there is a provision in the said law envisaging
that if a whistle blower wants to mention his name, then he/she will
have to give in writing in this regard.
Similarly, the minister said that if anyone was found disclosing the
name of the whistle blower, he will be proceeded against in
accordance to the provision laid down in the said Act. Likewise, if
any whistle blower was found giving wrong information on mala fide
intention, defaming anyone without any legal justification, he will
also be proceed against in accordance to procedure laid down in the
said law.
The minister said that although the law earlier enacted by the
government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was also effective, in order to
further enhance and expedite the drive against the menace of
corruption, this new law is being introduced.
