Chief ministership of Pervez Khattak

The Chief Ministership of Pervez Khattak ran from 31 May 2013 to 6 June 2018. It was the coalition of provincial government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa between Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), the Islamist Jamaat-e-Islami (JI), Qaumi Watan Party (QWP), and Awami Jamhuri Ittehad Pakistan (AJIP), which later merged with PTI.

Khattak carried out healthcare reforms, such as introducing a Health Insurance Scheme, the Sehat Sahulat Program for poor people and an 'Insulin for life' fund. He also suspended the medical superintendent and staff of a Peshawar children's hospital after inspection. The provincial government severed links with the QWP over corruption and suspended membership of its minister. However, the QWP and Ziaullah Afridi had accused that the Khattak cabinet itself was involved in corruption. Khattak also sacked ministers from its own party, including Shaukat Ali Yousafzai and an advisor to Pervez Khattak over issues of poor performance. Upper limits restricting 'overage' girls above ages 25 to 27 in college admissions was abolished.

The policy of Madrassah reforms, especially funding Darul Uloom Haqqania renowned for its links with Taliban and killers of Benazir Bhutto was criticised by many. Despite PTI saying it would ban VIP culture and protocol, several roads were blocked for Pervez Khattak's convoy. The financial management of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government entitled it to Rs 1.5 billion ($150 million) from the federal government. The government also said it had begun construction of 350 small dams.
