When asked about the growing distances from Jahangir Tareen, the Prime Minister said, "When the investigation into the rise in sugar prices and the FIA ​​report came out, very frightening things appeared."

Imran Khan also said that the safety of the people is the responsibility of the government. I am ready to listen to everyone's reservations, but there is one thing they should understand. Sugar prices increased by Rs26 in a year or so."

According to him, "if anyone has any concerns, he can be contacted."

Asked about the release of opposition leader Shahbaz Sharif, who was jailed for a long time on corruption charges, the Prime Minister said, "I will not comment on it, but I will say that shreds of evidence are available against who committed corruption worth billions of rupees."

Asked about the reshuffle in the federal cabinet, he said, "Changes will take place in two or three days."

The Prime Minister also said that "no matter how rich the government is, it cannot build a house for everyone, it can only provide facilities and that is what the government is doing."

According to him, "earlier banks did not give loans to the poor to build houses because people did not pay instalments after building houses, but now the procedure has changed."

The premier added that through the state's low-cost housing scheme, people will now have to pay less amount of money in instalments for their houses.

 "We have also set a ceiling for the interest rates at which banks provide loans — easing the process for the masses."
