HYDERABAD: Peoples Party (PPP) MPA Sharjeel Inam Memon has said that the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf government has dropped another “bomb of price hike” on the masses, and deplored that federal ministers were not ready to discuss economic conditions in the country.

He was speaking to party workers at his residence here on Monday while reviewing arrangements for the Feb 9 power show of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) which is to be held in Hyderabad.

MPA Memon observed that federal ministers appeared not ready to discharge their responsibilities and were least concerned about people’s plight.

He said PTI’s government was not capable of controlling price hike. He said it was only corruption that had increased during its rule.

He said that Sindh government was working for people’s progress. The PTI government did not like it and that’s why it was hurling allegations at the chief minister.
