Shahbaz Gill lashed out at the federal government’s decision of increasing fuel and gas prices. He held the government responsible for the sky-rocking inflation rate in the country in less than two months.

Everything was going in the right direction during the previous government. Pakistan witnessed record export, the highest ever remittances, the industry was growing, agriculture growth was at 4 percent, and the GDP rate was at around 6 percent, said Mr. Gill. Then, a conspiracy had been carried out against the former government with the help of the local handlers and they overthrew the government. They have derailed the development of Pakistan, Shahbaz Gill apprised. He states that the former Prime Minister Imran Khan and Finance Minister had already informed the powerful authorities that Pakistan was well on the track to economic progress and any change in government can detract the progress of the country.

Now the government is in the hands of corrupt and looters, which causes heavy consequences for the economic fate of the country, said Dr. Gill. He reminded that economic security is the backbone for the national security of any state, without it, even a strong army cannot save any country if its economy got destroyed, he told while referring to the erstwhile Soviet Union. The current army chief had also pointed out that a strong economy is key for national security and without a strong economy, no country can sustain its sovereignty while giving the example of the former Soviet Union’s disintegration. Dr. Gill declared the current PDM government a serious threat to the national security of Pakistan and said those who brought them committed a great mistake.
