Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) MNAS Shagufta Jumani, Shamsun Nisa Memon and Musarrat Rafique Maheesar while rejecting the recent decrease in POL prices termed it as unrealistic and a deception as compared to decline in POL prices in international market. The PMLN federal government has not passed adequate relief to the masses but has often revised taxes and common men’s commodities’ price with an upper limit through mini budgets silently, due to which the masses are enforced either to stay hungry or commit suicide.
They said the PMLN federal government is bent upon passing Pakistan into control of the IMF as its colony. The policies of the PMLN federal government are totally anti-masses and the overall scenario of bad governance might bring general elections quite earlier than the scheduled time and then the masses would avenge the PMLN for pushing them into enforced slavery to the IMF and then the PPP would be beside the masses.
In a statement issued here from PPP Media cell sindh Tuesday, they said the PMLN federal government has last month increased the electricity tariff for the residential consumers of Karachi by 30 percent and this increase was made only on dictation of the IMF and the recent minute decrease in POL prices is also on orders of the IMF but still the PMLN federal government is claiming to have served the masses, which is the biggest lie of the time.
They said it is now candid clear that the PMLN federal government wants to make Sindh its colony because the 30 percent increase in electricity tariff is imposed only for the people of Karachi. However, the people of Sindh are politically more mature than people from other parts of the country and would not let the PMLN federal government go without stern accountability.
They said that at one hand, the PMLN federal government has minutely decreased the POL prices but at the other pushed the Oil Tankers Association to go on strike, which created Petrol curfew in Sindh and the so-called relief is thus impeded.
They asked under which law the PMLN federal government has the authority to raise the residential tariff of electricity in Karachi by 30 percent while the other provinces are exempted.
They asked the PMLN federal government whether Sindh and Karachi are occupied and conquered colonies of Punjab that the people of Sindh and Karachi are subjected to invasion by the federal institutions in provincial institutions despite the passage of the 18th constitutional amendment.
They said the government of Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif has snatched the least morsel from the mouth of the people of Sindh.
They said the PP had only adopted the policy of reconciliation for the sake of democracy but it should never be taken for granted for imposing atrocities on people of Sindh.
They asked the Prime Minister to impose the policies of the IMF only in Punjab.
