We believe in providing this direct access to justice for the poor.

Listening attentively to the complainants and petitioners, he issued orders later to provide clarification to the responsible officers of the concerned department and facilitate fair decisions.

Governor Mandokhel said that accountability, transparency and responsibility are mandatory in all government institutions, for which a strong check and balance mechanism is the first condition.

He said that it is a fact that the institution of the Ombudsman is the most important means of providing cheap justice to the poorest members of the society, in the present era, it is not possible to deny the importance and usefulness of modern technology, therefore, the dream of good governance could not be realized without computerizing institutions and departments.

To ensure a transparent and integrated system, it is also imperative to continuously enhance the capacity of government officers and employees, he said.
