On Sunday, former Vice President of FPCCI Atif Ikram Sheikh said the Pakistanis are worried about their jobs and increasing inflation and are fed up with endless political wrangling. Politicians have crossed all boundaries of morality in the race to humiliate each other. Instead of giving any program to save the country’s economy, they are indulging in accusations, he said.

Atif Ikram Sheikh, who has also served as Chairman of PVMA, said in a statement that the IMF is playing a cat-and-mouse game with Pakistan. In contrast, no political party has any plan to run the economy with or without the help of the international organisation.

Political leaders need to present a workable solution to the nation, which is disappointing the public and the business community, he added.

The business leader said that the politicians need to understand that the problem of the people is not their power but earning bread and keeping employment in the unbearable inflation.

He said that it has become impossible for the majority to run the budget of their homes, and the solution to such problems lies with the government, which gives some relief and protection to the people. Still, now the welfare of the people has been neglected, and they are at the mercy of the circumstances.

The country has no economic governance, and the political leaders need more time to be ready to agree on the Charter of Economy. In these circumstances, business people are worried about Pakistan’s political and economic future.

He informed that items of daily use are more expensive in the market than the official inflation data, while nothing is being done to control profiteering, leading to public outrage.
