Abstract
Good governance is a desirable process as well as end-result of participatory democracy. For the
last three decades „good governance‟ is more frequently used in the studies of political science
because it is considered that good governance is a key indicat to judge the conducting of public
institutions (that how efficiently and effectively they manage public recourses and administer
public affairs). The existing literature on this subject matter identifies that good governance leads
to sustainable development. According to international financial institution e.g. World Bank, lack
of good governance in the third world countries is the main cause of their underdevelopment.
Pakistan (one of third world countries) is a federation with diversified ethno-linguistic identities
and since its emergence as an independent state; it has been facing the governance related issues
seriously. This conceptual and analytical study aims to explain that how the failure and
dysfunctionality of public institutions itself disrupt the process of good governance in Pakistan.
