Bilawal condemns hike in POL prices, asks people to help him get rid of PTI govt

KARACHI: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has condemned the increase in POL products prices and urged the masses to support him to get rid of the incumbent government that has been pushing Pakistan into inflation.

In a statement issued on Saturday, Bilawal said that the prices of POL products have been taken to the highest level in the history of the country. PTI brought a tsunami of inflation in the country, he added.

“The government is actually collecting the price of its incompetence from the people by increasing the price of petrol by more than Rs10 per litre,” he added.

Reacting to the recent hike in prices of petrol and electricity, the PPP leader said that the general masses are paying the cost of the government’s incompetency. A hike in electricity and petrol prices shows that Prime Minister Imran Khan is an enemy of the people, he added. 

The reaction came after the government had jacked up the price of petrol by Rs10.49 per liter effective from October 16, following fluctuation in the global oil prices.

The PPP Chairman said that only a people-friendly government of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) could save the country from the tsunami of inflation. He termed Prime Minister Imran Khan anti-people.

Bilawal urged the people to support him to get rid of the tyrannical government that has been pushing Pakistan into inflation.

Meanwhile, senior PPP leaders Sherry Rehman and Nayyar Bukhari have also criticized the government for unleashing a reign of inflation by raising prices of the petroleum products. TF Report
