The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has asked Prime Minister Imran Khan to apologize to the nation for taking U-turns. Reacting to the PTI government approaching the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a bailout package, PML-N spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb said: "The government is putting the entire weight of its incompetence on the people." She said the PML-N had ended the programme with the IMF in 2015 to lift the burden of inflation and economic stability in the country. She said Prime Minister Imran Khan did not have confidence in his team. "How can the nation have confidence in this team then?" she questioned. She further said this 'fake government' was betraying the nation and had already finalized the IMF deal. "Why this government is hiding the terms of the agreement with the IMF?"
The PML-N leader said the IMF package would bring a new tsunami of inflation for the people. "The nation should be told how much prices of gas, electricity and essential items have been increased in the IMF bailout package," she said.
Moreover, reacting to Moody's changing Pakistan banking system outlook to negative, PML-N MNA Ahsan Iqbal in a tweet said, "Unfortunately, aftershocks of political engineered crisis continue to impact our economy adversely."
