Federal government denying the rights of provinces : Liaqat Baloch

Lahore : Deputy chief of the Jamaat e Islami, Liaqat Baloch, has said that the federal government as well as the provinces were not implementing the constitution especially the 18^th  amendment in letter and spirit due to which the problems of the masses were multiplying.

In a statement here on return from a visit to Sindh and Khyber P. after Eid ul Fitr, he said that the federal government was denying the provinces their rights under the 18^th amendment while the provinces were not granting the local bodies their due powers and funds. As a result, the problems of the people at provincial and local bodies level were not being solved.  He said that price hike and unemployment coupled with the record fall of the rupee had reduced the purchasing power of the general public to zero.

Liaqat Baloch said that while the official Economic Survey was to be released within a day, the public economic survey showed that the stock market had collapsed  and the interest rate and the quantum of loans of the country had multiplied. All these factors proved that the Imran khan regime was incompetent and had failed.
