ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan in his address to the nation announced to reduce the prices of petroleum products and electricity.
In his address, Prime Minister Imran Khan said that petrol and diesel prices are still low in Pakistan. If the government does not give a subsidy of Rs 70 billion every month, then the price of petrol in Pakistan today would be Rs 220 per liter.
The Prime Minister said that the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) had sent a summary stating that the price of petrol and diesel would have to be increased by Rs 10 per liter as oil has become more expensive in the world. Instead of increasing Rs 10, we have decided that we are reducing petrol and diesel by Rs 10.
The Prime Minister also announced to reduce the price of electricity by Rs. 5 per unit and said that this measure would reduce the electricity bill by 20 to 50 percent.
"We have decided that there will be no further increase in the price of petrol, diesel and electricity before the next budget," he added.
In his address to the nation, the Prime Minister said that he was against Pakistan's involvement in the US war from the very first day which caused great loss to Pakistan.
Prime Minister Imran Khan appealed to the people that if you want an independent foreign policy then never vote for the party whose leader's wealth is lying abroad, such people can never make an independent foreign policy.
Imran Khan said that the world situation is changing rapidly, the effects of the changing situation are also affecting Pakistan, foreign policy should be for the interests of his country, since the beginning of politics wanted Pakistan to have an independent foreign policy.
"An independent nation means a policy that is in the interest of the nation. Pakistan had nothing to do with the US war on terror. We should not have joined the US war on terror," he said. Foreign policy was not for the benefit of Pakistanis, 80,000 Pakistanis lost their lives, it was a shame that one country was fighting for another country and it was being bombed.
The Prime Minister said that the military dictators want the world to recognize and recognize them but surprisingly only 10 drone strikes took place during Musharraf era while 400 drone strikes took place during the democratic era of Asif Zardari and Nawaz Sharif. The US should have said that children and women are dying, the American journalist wrote that Zardari said that it does not matter if innocent people die in drone strikes.
Referring to his visit to Russia, the Prime Minister said that the purpose of his visit to Russia was to sign wheat and gas import agreements.
"Imran Khan's wife has left home," a journalist wrote.
Referring to the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PICA) Amendment Ordinance, the Prime Minister said that this law was enacted in 2016, we are only going to make some amendments in it, there is a lot of fuss over this law.
He said that the purpose of bringing this law is that the kind of stench that is coming on social media that it must be controlled, is full of child pornography, such content is not on the social media of any civilized world as we have. ۔ Even the Prime Minister is not being forgiven on social media.
The Prime Minister said that a journalist wrote that Imran Khan's wife has left home. It is happening with the Prime Minister. Think what will happen to the common people. It is being said that freedom of press has been banned but it is not. Nothing, this is to prevent fake news, real journalists will be happy with this law.
Imran Khan said that when a journalist wrote against Nawaz Sharif, Nawaz Sharif closed it for 3 days, I have seen criticism all my life, good journalism is an asset of society, criticism informs us, for the Prime Minister of Azad Kashmir. It was said that elected through magic and stars, baseless allegations of ban on freedom of press are being spread.
I am afraid that the prices of oil in the world market will not come down yet and the price of gas will also go up
"I am afraid that the price of oil in the world market will not come down and the price of gas will go up. At the same time, the wheat we have to buy from Russia has become more expensive," he said.
The Prime Minister said that petrol and diesel prices are still low in Pakistan. If the government does not give a subsidy of Rs 70 billion every month, then the price of petrol in Pakistan today would be Rs 220 per liter.
He said that today I am giving good news to the nation that instead of increasing the price, I am announcing reduction in petrol and diesel prices by Rs. 10, 10 per liter.
Besides, the Prime Minister said that they are also making electricity cheaper by Rs. 5 per unit and giving relief to the nation in this sector by reducing the subsidy from other places.
