Government’s ‘Meritocracy’ Slogan is Pure Lies
Abbas Jahangiri Zadeh stated in his remarks that the government’s ‘meritocracy’ slogan is pure lies.
Abbas Jahangiri Zadeh, representative of Parsabad in parliament, regarding the economic situation and the government’s appointed ministers, said: “It is unacceptable that certain groups in the government keep saying we will have good news in the future, and fundamentally good news does not happen through slogans. People want results, and by God’s grace, despite all the sanctions and economic complexities that exist, the country can be managed much better than this.”
He, who represents Parsabad and Bileh Savar in Ardabil province, in an interview with “Rouydad24” referred to important points regarding the economic situation and management in the country and continued: “The slogans that the government raised at the beginning of its work were based on people’s demands, but the passage of time showed that government officials failed to implement any of their attractive slogans, all of which indicate weak management, because we live in a country that has all capacities, facilities, resources, reserves, oil, and everything in general.”
He further stated that the government has not paid adequate attention to different layers of the population, and if management in the country had been done properly, we would not have faced unfortunate economic events, and officials could have given positive responses to people’s demands. Claiming that senior and mid-level managers of the country have been selected based on meritocracy in society is pure lies. Now everyone can see each other, and society can easily judge this matter.
According to Abbas Jahangiri Zadeh’s statements, every shortcoming that exists in society goes back to the country’s internal management, and weakness in management is causing hardship. President Raisi also, as president, has not followed through on any of his promises about acting in a non-partisan manner and not showing affiliation to any party.
While pointing out that society expects the government to bring competent, efficient, and capable managers to power, he added: “People want those who understand their problems, but this has not happened in provinces, cities, and Tehran, and as long as this does not happen, we cannot have any expectations or hopes from any government in power; because whenever a minister is dismissed, a weaker minister replaces him. If this situation is not corrected, the condition of the people and Iran will be much worse than it is now.”
