Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan Sunday launched a special portal to address the grievances and complaints of the general public.

Pakistan Citizens' Portal (PCP) is a complete grievance redressal system which is connected with all the government departments. The Prime Minister's office will monitor the entire procedure, according to Radio Pakistan.

A citizen of Pakistan can lodge his or her complaint through a smartphone app, website, e-mail or Facebook.

A complaint can also be registered through a toll free number. All complaints will be resolved in a given time-frame in a transparent manner to the satisfaction of the complainant.

Addressing the launch of PCP, Khan said indigenous development of this app was appreciable and it showed that old colonial mind-set had been replaced with accountability for all including government, politicians and public servants.

Pakistan had immense potential and "we need to work hard to make this country better".
