The chairman of Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and a Member of the National Assembly (MNA) Noor Alam Khan has suggested Finance Minister Miftah Ismail to better start selling ‘toffees’ instead of dealing with the financial matters.
Noor Alam Khan launched sharp criticism against Finance Minister Miftah Ismail over skyrocketing fuel prices in the country. He censured that Ismail failed to provide relief to the nation. He said that the government should reduce the diesel price instead of petrol to provide relief to the masses. Khan criticised that the finance minister has no fellings for the miseries of farmers and transporters.
“The modification in diesel price impacts all commodities, increasing its rates after the hike in diesel rate. At this time, diesel for the farmers’ tractors and tubewells is expensive but petrol for elites’ cars is low-priced.”—INP
