Shahbaz blames government 'mafia' for creating sugar crisis

PMLN President and National Assembly Opposition Leader Shahbaz Sharif said that Imran Khan's PTI government is the culprit behind the sugar crisis in the country.

In a statement Shahbaz said, the corrupt hoard of self enrichment driven PTI gang first exported sugar to make money and create shortage and is now importing sugar to mint billions off of people's misery. He said Imran Khan oversaw this mega corruption scandal to ensure his ATMs get thoroughly loaded to later serve him with their ill-gotten wealth from corruption. He said influential government members are involved in the wheat and sugar mega corruption heist.

Shahbaz demanded that the government must release the names of the top three government officials importing sugar. If the government is not of corrupt looters why doesn't it constitute a parliamentary committee to expose the culprits? The committee would investigate who profited the most from this crisis and who is responsible for this robbery.

The only reason why the investigation committee hasn't released any report is that that Niazi and his ministers are guilty, he said.

The National Assembly Opposition Leader expressed concern and alarm over the destruction of Pakistan's economy by PTI. He said PTI's begging to IMF to lower the bar of Rs 800 billion is a declaration of the country's economic annihilation.

He said the expected 9.5 deficit is a doomsday scenario for the nation. Shahbaz said the corrupt and incompetent PTI is the only one to blame for this state of the country.

The PMLN President warned that this fiscal deficit is screaming that Pakistan will be drowned under the coming Tsunami of internal debt, external debt and unimaginable inflation. Those who broke all records by borrowing Rs 11,610 billion in just 18 months are the culprits of the nation.

This he said is more than one third of the risk debt borrowed in past 72 years. Shahbaz said coming many generations will have to pay the price for this incompetence and corruption of Niazi government.-PR
