Pakistan on the verge of bankruptcy, says Imran
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Saturday said the country is at the verge of bankruptcy while the prime minister is busy with his foreign tours.
“The government has crippled the country’s economy by borrowing loans in huge amounts unprecedented in Pakistan’s history and the country has gone nearly bankrupt,” Kaptaan said while addressing his supporters at D-Chowk.
The skipper said Nawaz Sharif paid 14 foreign visits after assuming power last year. “Nawaz Sharif said he went abroad frequently to bring foreign investment. Where’s foreign investment? The country’s economy has collapsed. Where are all those tall claims?” asked Kaptaan whose protest movement against Nawaz Sharif has been participated by a huge number of people for nearly two months.
The PTI chairman said the government’s overwhelming reliance on foreign debts with no emphasis to facilitate and strengthen Pakistan’s indigenous industry was the prime reason of the crippled economy.
