Imran Khan Warned That Inflation Will Continue To Climb: Imran Khan, the chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI), has warned that inflation will continue to climb, and that the country is on the verge of becoming the next Sri Lanka, which is experiencing its worst economic crisis since independence. Fight Against The Imported Government: Mr Khan, speaking via video link to party workers across the country, urged people to take to the streets to fight inflation “for their own benefit” and to intensify their fight against the “imported government.” Inflation Will Disproportionately Affect The Poor:   “I have summoned you to protest the price increase because it is in your best interests.

Inflation will disproportionately affect the poor, particularly salaried workers, farmers, and labourers. I’ll give you another call for the demonstration, which will go on until we receive a date for a free and fair election,” he stated. “We don’t want elections merely for the sake of elections. We demand free and fair elections,” he said. Current Government Claimed Imran Khan Had Planted Landmines: He claimed that the current government claimed Imran Khan had planted landmines, but that the PTI had only hiked gas and diesel prices by a few rupees, whilst the incumbent rulers had risen them by more than Rs100. Recent Price Spikes Were Caused By IMF’s Programme: Mr Khan dismissed claims that recent price spikes were caused by the International Monetary Fund
