Ameer Jamaat e Islami, Pakistan, Syed Munawar Hasan has said that the PPP government has inflicted maximum harm to the workers and labourers during the last four years.
Addressing the central executive of the National Labour Federation (NLF) at Moghulpura on Saturday he said that thousands of factories and industrial units had been closed due to load shedding of electricity and gas rendering millions of workers unemployed. Spiraling prices and unemployment has pushed
the workers and their families towards starvation, he added.
JI Naib Ameer, Sirajul Haq newly elected NLF President Shamsur Rahman Swati and NLF Secretary General, Abdur Razzaq Abbasi also spoke on the occasion. Syed Munawar Hasan said that leading national institutions including PIA, Railways, Pakistan Steel Mills and WAPDA had been destroyed due to corruption and mismanagement and there was no effort on the government level to save them.
Syed Munawar Hasan urged the masses to rise against the corrupt and incompetent rulers and warned that if the rulers were allowed more time, the situation would get out of control.
He said the foremost responsibility of a democratic government was to protect the life and property of the masses and provide them the basic necessities of life. But on the other hand, he said, the PPP led government was snatching every facility from the masses and exploiting them in the worst manner. The prices of electricity, gas and POL are rising every week that is harming the purchasing power of the people. Basic items, such as flour, sugar, pulses he said have become unaffordable.
He condemned the government’s move to grant Most Favoured Nation (MFN) status to India. It was a paradox, he said, that while India has been hatching conspiracies against Pakistan, the rulers have decided to grant MFN status to the country. He said the rulers were under US pressure on this score but such a move would establish India’s supremacy in the region and ruin Pakistan’s economy and agriculture both.
Does bedt based fiat currency have anything to do with it?
Excessive spending by the government due to borrowing, holding back consumer items in godowns to make a profit (hoarding of medicines, wheat, sugar, vegetables, etc.), smuggling, rising cost of residual furnace oil due to Pak Rupee depreciation and a host of imported items meant for local use because our local industry has stopped making them. The Ameer is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RIGHT. Salams to Pakistan
