SECTION-A (Answer the question below)
(INSERT)
SOURCE-A
The economic policies of the Bhutto government rested on the premise that the control of the leading
enterprises was to be in the hands of the state. It ought to be pointed out that while this policy of
nationalization has been much maligned by critics of Bhutto, his policies were a reflection of the times
and of the age in which they were implemented.
Since Bhutto’s rise to electoral success was based on his populist critique of Ayub Khan’s economic
policies of functional inequality resulting in the infamous ‘22 families’, issues of redistribution,
nationalization and social-sector development were fundamental to his economic programme. Literally
within days of taking over power, in January 1972, Bhutto had nationalized 30 major firms in 10 key
industries in the large-scale manufacturing sector, essentially in the capital and intermediate goods
industry.
