ISLAMABAD: Shehbaz Sharif, President, Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) and Opposition Leader in National Assembly has said that passing the PTI government’s mini-budget in the Parliament would be committing National Suicide.
In a statement PML-N President reiterated that a collective strategy would be devised through a consensus with the Joint Opposition to block and reject this mini-budget because it jeopardizes the economic sovereignty of the country.
He said all efforts would be made to shake the conscious of Parliamentarians representing the government and its allies, to realize the devastating effects of this mini-budget on the country and its people.
“The incumbent government has become a threat to National Security. Trying to fix the crisis-hit economy with a mini-budget would be like treating cancer with asprin. The government must resign instead of further destroying the economy with such disastrous mini-budget prepared by the IMF”, he maintained.
Shehbaz said the tsunami of the so-called “Tabdeeli (Change)” had wiped away National economy, employment and the happiness from people’s lives. The people had still not been given the appropriate relief in petrol prices in accordance with the International price decrease, he pointed out.
The fruits of the economic relief package had still not reached to people, however, more inflation in electricity, gas, petrol and essentials had made life even more miserable for the masses, he said.
