#BudgetPakistan - #PPP and JI reject the PTI anti-labour budget

The chief of Jamat-e-Islami, Siraj ul Haq telephoned Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to discuss the current situation in the country.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari talking to Siraj ul Haq said that we were expecting that the government will prepare the budget keeping in mind the crisis of Covid-19. He said that this anti-people budget will be exposed at every forum. He also said that the absence of any clear policy to protect our crops from locust attacks is also a matter of concern. He said that last year speaking on budget, President Zardari had warned about the issue of locusts but the government remained unmoved. Chairman Bilawal said that due to the government’s irresponsible attitude towards the locust issue, it could become a greater crisis than Covid-19.


The Ameer of JI, Siraj ul Haq said that it is very disappointing that the budget is silent over employment for youth. He said that JI rejects the PTI government’s budget.


Chairman PPP Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that the budget instead of giving relief to the common people has given subsidy to pharmaceutical companies. At the same time, the construction sector has been given a package but no relief is given to the laborers. The people of Pakistan reject this anti-labor budget and PPP will also not accept any budget which does not give relief to the common people.
The Ameer of Jamat-e-Islami enquired about President Zardari’s health and also prayed for his recovery.
