You’re absolutely right corruption awam ka masla hay. After PMLN held prices steady for five years, it is PTI’s corruption that resulted in medicine prices more than doubling, sugar price reaching Rs 95, wheat flour exceeding Rs 60, etc. ==>
And it’s PTI’s incompetence that: results in frequent rail accidents; has devastated our aviation industry and hurt PIA immensely; has increased losses of Public Sector enterprises; results in circular debt increasing at the rate of Rs 50 bil / month in spite of raising power ==>
tariffs repeatedly; that forces the govt to produce power using expensive deisel instead of LNG that it neglects to import; that forces huge load shedding in Karachi and rest of Pakistan, etc. Finally it is a combination of PTI’s corruption and incompetence that results in: ==>
frequent transfers of govt officials in Punjab (especially in DG Khan and police); ghost teachers in KP schools; in trying to sell the Roosevelt hotel in a depressed real estate market; selling govt bonds a day before interest rates are lowered; FBR giving ==>
Rs 16 billion out-of-turn refunds to favoured firms; paying over 13% return to hot money investors, etc. So you’re right but I would just add that PTI’s corruption and incompetence are both “awam ka masla”.
