PML-N, PPP’s infighting exposes hypocrisy: Saif

Adviser to the Chief Minister for Information and Public Relations, Barrister Mohammad Ali Saif, has slammed the ongoing power struggle between ministers of Sindh and Punjab, calling it proof of the “open hypocrisy” of the PML-N and PPP.
He accused both parties of engaging in a political charade while fighting over the spoils of power.
“Their governance has become a practical example of ‘eat in the middle and cry in the middle,’” Saif remarked, adding that government allies were at odds over wealth distribution rather than public welfare.
He further alleged that before Ramadan, sugar prices were deliberately hiked by rulers benefiting from their own factories.
Mr Saif highlighted the alarming increase of Rs 6,106 billion in Pakistan’s debts and liabilities within a year under the PML-N and PPP rule, pushing the country’s total debt beyond Rs 88,000 billion.
He described this surge as a testament to economic devastation, blaming the government for plunging both the public and the economy into crisis.
He asserted that while the ruling coalition continues its “exhibition fight,” ordinary citizens are drowning in inflation, and Pakistan is sinking deeper into debt, with no real relief in sight.
