KARACHI, March 10: PPP (SB) chairperson Ms Ghinwa Bhutto on Sunday criticised the economic policies of the government.

She said the government’s policy for getting more loans and relief from the IMF and the World Bank would in no way serve the national interest.

She said such short-sighted policies had always proved disasterous in the past, making the country dependent on donor countries.

She was talking to party delegations of elected councillors from Sindh and Balochistan.
