Blow the horn, wake the ruler, protest to be held outside Prime Minister house

Blow the horn, wake the ruler, protest to be held outside Prime Minister house, demonstrators to blow horns as a show of protest.

According to the report of Baaghi TV, All Pakistan Anjuman-e-Tajiran has announced a nationwide protest against inflation.

Anjuman-e-Tajiran leader Naeem Mir said that the business community had started a nationwide consultation in July to prepare for the “Blow the Horn, Rise the Ruler” protest. Traders from all over the country will reach Islamabad on their vehicles. Traders will turn all their vehicles towards the Prime Minister’s House.

Naeem Mir said that the vehicles would be directed towards the Prime Minister’s House and horns would be sounded every half an hour. The government should take back the prices of petroleum products. Smart lockdown, limited time and limited days have already ruined the business. An increase in the price of petrol will lead to inflation. The government should announce a relief package for small traders.

Naeem Mir further said that inflation has already destroyed livelihood and business. The government has come down to the worst enmity with the traders. The impression has been formed among the traders that business will not run under this government. It is not known when the opposition will take to the streets against inflation. An agreed date for the protest will be announced after consultation. We will also invite all opposition parties to our protest

It should be noted that the PTI government dropped a petrol bomb on the people and for the first time in the history of Pakistan the lump sum prices increased by Rs 25. The people, including the opposition, are protesting against the increase in petrol prices, but the PTI is cleaning up by saying that the prices were increased after the increase in oil prices in the world market.

When Prime Minister Imran Khan was in the opposition, he used to wail after the rise in oil prices and call it a robbery on the poor. Many of his statements and tweets in this regard are on record, but now he himself is on the same track as the previous rulers. Due to the ongoing corona situation the government made petrol cheaper, the mafia created a shortage of petrol. The petrol pump owners had closed the sale of petrol. Cheap petrol did not benefit the people, now the government has come under pressure from the petrol mafia to raise its own prices, which has been rejected by opposition parties.

The poor people of Pakistan are already worried because of the Corona lockdown, Corona has closed down businesses, millions of people have lost their jobs, salaries have not been increased in the budget , now the petrol bomb is a gift from the government to the people. The people are not ready to accept it in any case but the government helpless in front of the mafia.

Federal Minister for Energy Omar Ayub has said that the prices of petroleum products in Pakistan are still the lowest in the subcontinent. Last month, global crude oil prices rose rapidly and the Pakistani rupee depreciated by three rupees. For these reasons, the price of petrol should have been increased by Rs 31.58 paise while the price of diesel should have been increased by Rs 24.31 paise, but the Federal Government increased the price of petrol by Rs 25.58 paise and the price of diesel by Rs 21.31 paise.
