Karachi, Pakistan - The Pasban Democratic Party (PDP) has called for an immediate decrease in the prices of petroleum products and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), Vice Chairman Azam Minhas declared. Minhas argued that the escalation of LPG costs would intensify hardships for both individual and business consumers, while increased petrol prices could trigger a significant rise in food item costs.
He stated that in a nation where a significant portion of the populace resides beneath the poverty line, forcing citizens into a subservient state is a cruel act. Minhas cautioned that once the public becomes aware of the situation, the elite will be compelled to abandon their positions. He urged that public welfare should take precedence over the acquisition of costly aircraft and vehicles, as well as the provision of excessive privileges to the wealthy. He emphasized the need for urgent measures to counteract soaring inflation.
