Why PTI failed in Local Body Polls 2015?
The party could not performed well in the Local Government Polls for 2015. The election results were like a nightmare for the 19 year old party. PTI emerged as rising party in 2011 when thousands of people attended its rally in Lahore.
In 2013 elections, PTI stood second largest party by vote and third largest party by seats.
It was biggest achievement for a party that gave poor performance in past elections. Now once again worst situation came to the PTI on local bodies elections and it failed to win enough seats in the polls.
267th Political Party
Pakistan has over 266 registered political parties but few have resulted in informed public opinion, economic growth, or advanced democracy. Recently, former deputy information secretary of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Adnan Randhawa, formed the Aam Aadmi Party in Islamabad. It remains to be seen if this new party will have any impact or fate. Voters and educated youth tend to vote for leading parties based on their platforms and records. For the Aam Aadmi Party to distinguish itself in Pakistan's political arena, it will need to conduct widespread membership campaigns, educate voters, and clearly define its future coalitions and policy positions regarding issues like climate, women, and digital media.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
