Consumers using up to 200 units per month will get relief from July to September
- Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday announced a Rs50 billion package to provide a relief of up to Rs7 per unit to around 25 million domestic consumers falling in the protected category for three months till September.
He also assured the people of further relief as the government got a fiscal space consequent to its ongoing measures of taxing the elite class, expanding the tax net, closing the non-performing entities and plugging the holes causing financial leakages. The prime minister said that under the leadership of Muhammad Nawaz Sharif, the incumbent government took responsibility for public service and would collectively face the challenges to put the country on track to progress.
During the last decade, around Rs 500 billion went down the drain this way, therefore the government decided to disconnect their power connection and solarise all the said tube wells costing Rs 55 billion to be borne by the federal and provincial governments with 70/30 proportion respectively. Mentioning the $5 billion being spent annually on freight of import and export, he said the Pakistan National Shipping Corporation was running a fleet of only 12 ships against an annual budget of Rs5 billion, contrary to hundreds of ships in the fleet of other countries like Bangladesh.
