Nation will take to streets owing to historic inflation: Sheikh Rashid

Rawalpindi: Awami Muslim League (AML) chief and former interior minister Sheikh Rashid has said PML-N has sunk the country in the sea of economic and political instability, while MQM has fallen into the hands of PPP.

Taking to Twitter, the former Interior minister said the finance ministry was engaging its blue-eyed officers in preparing mini-budget and was offering them lucrative foreign postings. He said the FBR had recorded Rs225 billion tax shortfall and that the Lahore High Court halted super tax.

Sheikh Rashid said the nation would take to the streets owing to historic inflation after 100 days as the incumbent rulers were busy in determining whether PTI chief Imran Khan received three or four bullets.

He said the rulers were unaware of the poor fate of Pakistanis who are unable to find panadol tablets and insulin. The AML chief warned that the IMF policies would land Pakistan in more economic troubles.
