Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) spokesperson lashed out at the caretaker government for the heartless and cruel increase in the prices of petrol and diesel, fearing that the brutal move seemed a well-thought-out conspiracy to aflame civil war in the country because the people have already lost their purchasing power due to ballooning inflation.
Strongly reacting to the development, PTI spokesperson rejected the massive and record-smashing hike in POL prices. “The record-breaking rise in petrol and diesel prices is a cruel blow to the poverty-stricken masses who are already reeling under soaring prices of all essential commodities,” he remarked.
PTI spokesperson urged the caretaker government to shun the callous approach to punish the inflation-ridden people for their own follies, flawed and failed economic policies. He expressed his apprehension that after the people lost the purchasing power due to the red-hot inflation and rampant unemployment, the current record-breaking increase in fuel prices seems a part of well-conceived scheme to trigger a civil war in the country because it seems no longer possible to stop the public reaction against the rising inflation.
PTI spokesperson has lamented: “The caretaker government is an extension and continuation of PDM’s criminal government in all respects,” adding that there was expectations that Anwarul Haq Kakar would choose a better path to ease the public’s woes instead of becoming the heir of criminals, who reversed all the hard-gains of PTI government.
