The most incurable disease for Pakistan is inflation which is devouring the poor day by day. Our people live a very vulnerable life because of poverty. Nearly 39 percent of Pakistanis live under multidimensional poverty. More than a third of Pakistan’s population is living below the poverty line. Balochistan has the highest rate of poverty, Sindh comes second, followed by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and then Punjab.According to experts, our poverty is caused by inflation, unequal distribution of resources, lack of facilities, high unemployment rates, and growing population. Inflation has become an epidemic disease which gives birth to multiple issues. This time we elected the PTI to form government with the hope that they would cure this problem and facilitate the people. But that has not happened. Pakistan will not prosper if we don’t follow the path of good governance and control the inflation.Mujeeb Ali SamoLarkana
