NAROWAL: Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal held Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan responsible for recent hike in fuel prices and ongoing inflation. “Nation is witnessing inflation and economic crisis due to imprudent policies of previous Imran Khan-led government,” he said while addressing PML-N’s workers convention here.

Ahsan Iqbal lambasted Imran Khan for signing an agreement with International Monetary Fund on “Difficult terms and conditions”. Praising PML-N’s previous tenure, Iqbal said that his party put country on right track during its previous tenure under leadership of Nawaz Sharif, claiming that country was rapidly progressing in 2018.
