Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar has said the people have rejected the public gathering of PTI in Lahore.
In his televised remarks today [Saturday], he said the party leaders had made big claims regarding this gathering but all of them fell flat.
He said the government provided free hand and kept the routes and access to the public gathering open, in addition to providing security, but the party failed to assemble the public.
The Information Minister said there was no clear rationale or narrative behind this gathering. He said the inflation has come down to the single digit and the world institutions are saying that Pakistan’s economy is taking off.
He said Pakistan’s Stock Market is being dubbed as the best performing market in Asia. He pointed out that exports have witnessed a growth of fourteen percent and policy rate has also been reduced, which will help attract investment in the country. He said both the federal and Punjab governments have provided subsidy to the consumers
on electricity.
The Information Minister said the PTI’s intent is only to incite anarchy in the country and impede the process of development. Attaullah Tarar, however, expressed the government’s firm determination to develop a strong, stable and peaceful Pakistan.
