Chairman, Amun Taraqqi Party Muhammad Faiq Shah slammed the government for frequent increase in power tariff and excessive loadshedding as well as failure to arrest inflation and economic slide.
Talking to various delegations here at the party central secretariat on Wednesday, Mr Shah said governance was luxurious and people suffered from deprivation and backwardness.
The ATP chief said rising prices of electricity, gas and inflation have snatched the breath of people.
He said extravagant ministers, special aides and rulers are fulfilling IMF funds.
Enjoyment of ministers is underway, and there is no connection with people with the government, he added.
Faiq said that this democracy and government are not less than punishment for people.
The party chief said business and industry growth was stagnant with no sign of export and investment.
He said governments are fulfilling luxurious needs through circular debts and external loans.
Everyone has plundered Pakistan by considering it as a personal property, Mr Shah said.
He added 250million people to the country paying loan, interest and taxes.
“10 percent elite segments occupied over resources and business”,
He said there is no one to fight for public rights and raise their miseries.
Faiq vowed his party holds accountability with public demand and voice.
The party leader asked youth and competent people to come forward as a giant force.
This is the right time to make Pakistan an independent and autonomous state and liberate it from economic slavery forever, which is the mission of the ATP, Shah stressed.
Faiq said people of all provinces have been highly perturbed by the current form of governance.
He emphasized it is essential to fight the holy war against the storm of inflation, frequent increase in prices of electricity, gas tariff, loadshedding and corruption.
In this regard, he said his party is a leading and organised force, and contingent.
