The premier also expressed hope that the inflation’s downward trend will continue in the near future. He acknowledged the difficult circumstances when his government took charge but said efforts were made to improve the economy.
He added that while some positive results were already visible, further efforts were required to strengthen the economy.
The government, PM Shehbaz said, had taken steps for improvement and was working to end the culture of favouritism. He emphasised that the government was committed to fixing the economy, although more work remains to be done.
He also added that the public is beginning to see the benefits of a healthier economy.

The premier emphasised that mutual agreement and unity are key to the country’s progress.
