Shehbaz Slams PTI Govt’s Overpriced LNG Procurement

ISLAMABAD: PMLN President and National Assembly Opposition Leader Shehbaz Sharif has lashed out at the PTI’s procurement of LNG at historic high rates warning that it would add fuel to the fire of Inflation already burning the people of Pakistan.

In a statement Shehbaz said the nation was already being crushed under the avalanche of PTI’s corruption and incompetence. The Imran government had made sugar, flour, oil, petrol, medicines unaffordable for the poor Pakistanis, he added.

This procurement of LNG at more than $ 30 mmbtu was another mega scandal that needed to be investigated. The people of Pakistan would pay for this disastrous deal by the tyrannical Imran government. This current regime was one disastrous fraud after another.

Shehbaz said the PTI government, which was declared most corrupt by Transparency International, came up with the NAB Amendment Ordinance to hide their theft and corruption instead of punishing the corrupt. And even after doing all this and issuing Ordinances to protect corruption, Imran Khan said he was at a loss to understand what was causing inflation.
