LONDON: Talking to a private news source, Shehbaz Sharif alleged that the sort of “dictation” government was taking from the IMF is unparalleled.
He added that he planned to return to Pakistan before the budget session of the National Assembly and that rumors regarding his delay were false.
He told me that he was waiting for his medical reports to be issued before he heads back to Pakistan.
In a further mocking statement against the premier Khan, he said everybody knows “selected Prime minister” Imran Khan has no clue of how work is done.
He criticized the government’s policies and pointed out that while earlier, the PTI chief used to speak against the tax amnesty scheme, he was now introducing himself.
The PMLN leader lamented that the economic situation had deteriorated to such a point that even local investors were reluctant to invest; the question of overseas investors was pointless.
He noted that Pakistan’s foreign debt has increased by Rs500 billion due to the increasing rate of the dollar. The devaluation of rupee has “massacred Pakistan’s economy”, he added.
