“It was said in the speech that they came to know of the deficit after coming in power. This could be argument of a primary student but not of the founder of new Pakistan,” he condemned.
“We improved the economic infrastructure in five years; CPEC became game changer for Pakistan. World Bank declared in January 2018 that the country’s economy will progress by six percent. The economy which was boosting from past five years crashed in seven months,” he maintained.
