Islamabad, April 17 (IANS): The people of Pakistan will be able to raise their issues directly in the Senate against any ministry or department on the official website of the upper house of parliament soon, media reported Friday.
"In the next two to three days, a Public Petition System will be instituted. Any citizen of the country can raise any matter on the website," Dawn quoted Senate Chairman Raza Rabbani as saying on Thursday.
Each post, he said, would have a tracking number through which the complainant would be able to get an update on the status of their complaint. He added that the new system will increase public participation in the workings of parliament.
