ISLAMABAD: PMLN President and National Assembly Opposition Leader Shehbaz says the Pakistanis were caught between economic strife, inflation, unemployment and the worst load-shedding amid scorching heat.
Addressing a meeting of the parliamentary party he said the government guilty of mass mismanagement of electricity has shamelessly kept schools open while children faint from heat and power outages.but the government doesn’t care and is totally indifferent to the misery of the people, he said. It seems like there is no government in Pakistan.
The PMLN President said the latest economic survey was a charge sheet against this government. The data is depressing and alarming, he said. The 13% food inflation, increasing debt and tax collection shortfall were the biggest crimes of the PTI government. The incompetent government is still beginning for loads despite historic increase is everything including electricity tariffs. The survey had exposed the ugly face of the 3 years of PTI government. People didn’t get anything other than abject poverty, starvation and unemployment, he said.
” PTI’s tall claims fell flat on their face and the truth of their shallow-mindedness was exposed. The people of Pakistan had realised that they had been brutally defrauded. After destruction of economy for 3 years, PTI was now claiming that it was settling foot in the right direction. How will this government reach its destination of they couldn’t even figure out the right direction in 3 years”, he lambasted.
Shehbaz said this government wasted 3 precious years of this country and PMLN would not allow them to waste any more time. He directed all party members to play their role in exposing and blocking the anti-people budget. He pledged that the opposition will unite to do everything to stop this budget from passing.
Shehbaz extended condolences to the affected families of the Ghotki train accident. He prayed for the speedy recovery of those injured in the accident.
