Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday said the government had “no other option” but to implement the International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme. In the past, the PTI government blatantly breached the agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The prime minister assured that the whole process would be conducted through transparent bidding via a third party. He also urged the provincial chief ministers to emulate the federal government’s launched pattern and introduce solar systems in their respective provinces, assuring the federal government’s complete assistance in this regard. The prime minister said during the Covid pandemic, the prices of gas crashed to the lowest and it was sold at $2 per unit.
