People-friendly government?

One should take on our government for its policies that are not people-friendly at all. For a comparison, India with a population six times more than Pakistan, and whose population living under the poverty line is more than 60 percent, has offered highly subsidised rates for most of the commodities used by the poor. In Pakistan, the rates of these very products have increased instead. Government’s lack of interest in providing relief to the poor while focus on politicising each and every issue has made the situation even worse.
