No-confidence motion will provide relief for masses suffering from inflation: Shehbaz

Lahore: Leader of Opposition in National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif on Thursday said that no-confidence motion is the only way citizens will get any relief from these corrupt leaders.

The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) president Shehbaz Sharif, in a statement, said that the government has evened out the relief that had provided in petroleum products by increasing the prices of oil by 10 rupees.

The PML-N president further claimed that the people of the country will have to bear the burden of these false packages provided by the government. 

“If the government is really serious in providing relief to the people, then it should withdraw over Rs4 per unit hike in electricity prices,” Shehbaz said and added it was feared that the people might have to pay for whatever ‘relief’ they had been given by the government recently in the shape of more inflation in days to come.  

PML-N president said the prices of wheat, flour, electricity, and sugar registered a 100 percent increase during the last three years of the present government. “This is a record-breaking increase,” he opined.     

Shehbaz expressed the hope that the no-trust motion the opposition parties planned to bring against the government in the National Assembly would provide ‘real’ relief to the inflation-hit people
