He added that 2.98 million acres of state and forest land, with an estimated value of Rs 5.99 trillion, had been reclaimed.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1600\" data-end=\"2071\">The chairman also informed the meeting that Rs 180 billion had been returned to 115,587 victims of fake and fraudulent housing and investment schemes, a move he said helped restore public confidence in the accountability process. Initiatives such as <em data-start=\"1850\" data-end=\"1865\">Khuli Kacheri<\/em> (open court) and the Central Complaint Cell, he added, had significantly reduced the gap between the state and citizens, reshaping NAB into an institution focused on grievance redressal rather than fear.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2073\" data-end=\"2272\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">Officials said the reforms formed part of a broader strategy to further strengthen the accountability system and enhance public trust, adding that such measures would continue in the future. &#8212; LORD<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday praised the National Accountability Bureau\u2019s (NAB) transition toward a technology-based investigative system, describing it as a major step toward transparency, efficiency and effective accountability.
