Revised Oil Prices with Heavy Heart; Rs 28 Billion Package to Provide Relief: PM Shahbaz Sharif

Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif explained in his statement that the current government has increased the prices of petroleum on Saturday, being unsatisfied.

The Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, stated in front of the media when he spoke before a very important court here that the authorities had allocated Rs 28 billion every month to grant comfort to the residents affected by the prices, as a component of a programme when it was announced on Friday night.

In his statement, he also claimed that under this agreement, each of the 125 million families eligible for this programme would receive Rs 2,000 in petrol subsidies. He also explained to the media that all the price rises are having a bad impact on society and, most importantly, the average person.

Individuals were not able to pay for a single meal, not even medical treatment, due to not having any organisations or jobs. Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday said that the incumbent government had increased petroleum prices with a heavy heart.

The prime minister, talking to the media after he appeared before a special court here, said under a package he announced on Friday night, the government had allocated Rs 28 billion a month to provide relief to the inflation-hit people.      

He said under the package, Rs 2,000 each would be disbursed among the 125 million entitled families as a subsidy on petrol.

He told the media that inflation had adversely impacted the masses, making the poor people suffer. The prime minister told the media that the people could not even afford a one-time meal or medical treatment, besides having no businesses or jobs.

According to him, the country was going through strong and increasing inflation. In answer to another question related to the Yaum-e-Takbir, which was being tested on the occasion of the nuclear tests of May 28, 1998, the prime minister, in his statement, said that the prime minister of that time, Nawaz Sharif, had taken a strong step by refusing to accept the demands of the foreign and also refused the offer of $5 billion for the requirements of the country’s interests.
