Bureaucrats are the last bastion of resistance to changeOf all people, the Amir ofthe Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) is talking about Obsolete Mechanics (Puranay Mistri). According to Siraj-ul-Haq Sahib, the Prime Minister (PM) is trying to run a new machine with ‘puranay mistri‘. Keeping up with the Japanese approach of training the work force, new trained mechanics were introduced gradually, together with the new technology.

The sanctuaries of ‘obsolete mechanics’ can at best stall progress, which they have been doing for decades.
