POL price policy in Pakistan is no people friendly, Chairman MWM

Shiite News: Chairman Majlis Wahdat Muslimeen Pakistan Allama Raja Nasir Abbas Jafari has said in his statement issued by media cell, the policy of petroleum product prices in Pakistan is anti-people and cruel, eleven dollars per barrel has been reduced in three days.

The benefit of falling oil prices in the world market should also reach the people. If the poor people bear the burden of rising prices, then the people have the right to get the benefit of the reduced prices, so the government should immediately bring a substantial reduction in the prices of petrol, which will reduce the prices of food items and reduce inflation.

He said that the local currency has been stable against the dollar for a few days, but the increase in inflation is a dirty play with the poor people.

In the fiscal year of June 30, 2023, our country collected 7,169 billion rupees in taxes, seventy percent of the tax collection is from indirect taxes, while indirect taxes are only 30 percent, which clearly shows that the poor people are paying more taxes than the rich, but no relief and ease is being provided for them, this cruelty and excesses must be stopped.
