Bilawal shouldn’t give analysis on economy: Farrukh

ISLAMABAD: Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Farrukh Habib Thursday advised Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to abstain from giving analysis on the economic affairs.“When a person does not know anything about economy, he should avoid issuing wrong statements on such important matters,” said the minister in a statement. Chiding the PPP chairman, he said Bilawal had naïve understanding of the economic related matters and described his analysis as “Naach Na Janny Angan Tehrra” [a bad workman always blames his tools]. He said implementation on prices of essential items was the responsibility of the provincial governments after 18th Constitutional Amendment which was enacted during the PPP regime. The minister said the PPP chairman should explain as to how many hoarders and profiteers were taken to the task to overcome the artificial price-hike. “Why have new industrial zones not been set up in Sindh to promote industrialisation there,” he questioned.
