KARACHI (92 News) – PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that the relief package announced by Prime Minister Imran Khan is nothing but a joke.

Reacting to the relief package on Wednesday, he said that the prime minister had claimed few families will benefit from 30 percent discount for only six months on ghee, flour and lentils.

"In three years, ghee prices increased by 108 percent, flour prices by 50 percent and gas prices by 300 percent. The 30 percent subsidy is too little and too late for 200 million people facing historic inflation, poverty and unemployment," he maintained.
