President Dr. Arif Alvi has directed the Auditor General of Pakistan (AGP), Javaid Jehangir, to prepare a roadmap in one month aiming to eliminate malpractices within the organization. He asked him to take corrective measures and improve the performance and efficiency of the AGP Office to address anomalies of the system. He emphasized that focus should be on identifying the grave irregularities instead of wasting energies on pointing out trivial issues. The President gave these directions during a meeting with the Auditor General of Pakistan, who called on him, at Aiwan-e-Sadr, today.
