PMLN Has Taken More Loans In Last 3 Years Than Ever Recorded In History

PMLN has broken all records of the past and it has become the first ever to take $24 Billion in loan. Moonis Elahi sarcastically praised the government to set a new record. The infamous "Kashkol" lives on and the incumbent government seems to have made it one of their most prized possessions. 

While on one end the PMLN media representatives glorify their supreme leader of being of the most successful PM ever, the facts go against these false claims. We can still hear Nawaz Sharif's pre election speeches ringing in our ears as if it were just yesterday when he bashed Zardari accusing him of taking the Kashkol to beg for loans, now he is doing the same but even more aggressively.

PMLQ's young politician Moonis Elahi is no mathematician or economist but when he says the economy is wrecked due to excessive debt servicing policy of the PMLN, he isn't wrong in pointing out the grave danger that lies ahead. While most seasoned politicians say they do not consider the young politicians worthy to be heard, it is the very attitude which is leading Pakistan towards its economic destruction. It is common sense that when you take loans at a hefty price and instead of repaying it, borrow some more and keep on taking loans the economy will be ruined and it will take many generations to repay the debt and live a harsh life.

Turkish president asked Nawaz Sharif to remove the entire Turkish staff and management from these schools.

Pak Turk schools are one of the finest schools in Punjab and parents of the children studying there have expressed satisfaction over the way they are run. In a recent incident the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan claimed that the NGO under which the schools are being operated have found to be linked with US based cleric Fethullah Gulen the very person who tried to impose a military coup in Turkey. 

Following the claim the Turkish president asked Nawaz Sharif to remove the entire Turkish staff and management from these schools. Following orders like an obedient servant the premier made haste and cancelled the visas of staff working there. Moonis Elahi expressed his view that in such matters a proper road map must be created before taking any steps that would affect the citizens.

Nawaz Sharif is known to be a personal friend with Erdogan rather than just having political friendship. the abrupt decision has shocked the nation and parents have become concerned about the quality of education in the country. A parent of children studying in a Pak Turk school campus Mr. Akbar said "the children have become mentally stressed at such a tender age following the news. 

Children get attached to their teachers and the news of them being kicked out of the country has made them sad. The PM should have handled the matter in a more sophisticated manner". Moonis Elahi has always said that the PMLN government does not care about the citizens but always works for its personal benefits and this is a very clear example. Only 2 days remain for the teachers to leave Pakistan or else they would be arrested.

Moonis Elahi Reacts to Curtailment of Punjab Gas Supply

Punjab houses the largest textile industry in Pakistan whose core necessity is Gas. Without it, the industry would not function properly and profits can be turned to losses. Punjab's government should ensure proper gas supply to factories even in the winter season because without the industries functioning properly many people would be unemployed. 

Moonis Elahi wonders why does CM Shahbaz Sharif fail in every winter to provide the industries with the required amount of gas to run without hindrance. Moonis Elahi Said It is the third term of Mr. Shahbaz Sharif as the CM of Punjab and he has yet again failed to address the issue with a concrete plan.

Moonis Elahi Urges Punjab Government to Favor Farmers and Agriculture problems in Pakistan

As sugar cane crushing season has started, farmers from all over the province make their way to the factories in hope to get good money for their sugarcane crop harvested. But this year the farmers do not seem interested in giving their crop to the mills. Moonis Elahi says farmers have lost their trust in the current Punjab Government policy. While only Tandiwala sugar mills bought sugar cane the rest are to start buying from 25th November. Even though the date has been announced but the turnout expected was very low which rings alarm bells. If farmers do not sell their crop to the mills there could be a shortage of sugar in the country.

Moonis Elahi says the major issue is the current price announced by the government. As farmers would be paid Rs. 180 per 40 kg, only Rs. 10 per mound have been increased from the price announced last year. disheartened by the rates offered to them by the mills, farmers have started setting up Jaggery plants on their lands as its rate is Rs. 3000 to Rs. 3500 per 40 kg in the market. It is the task of the CM to look into such matter and ensure that there are no monopolies played during the season. The shortfall could result in inflation and black market sales. Another huge setback for the farmers is that they do not get paid for their crops sold to the mills in time. 

A Tandiwala official claimed they would pay farmers net cash and would ensure all dues are cleared within a week. Moonis Elahi condemns the practice of sugar mills to not pay for the harvest when they are buying and rather make false promises with the poor farmers. When the poor doesn't get paid in time he gets burdened by debt which crushes his life even more. They are forced to take loans on heavy interests which makes their life a living hell. Farmers in Alipur and Jatoi are really disappointed with Haseeb Waqas mills as they have failed to clear more than Rs. 180 million they owe to the farmers for last year's crop yield.

Javaid Asif, a local farmer sated "they [Haseeb Waqas mills] have not cleared me of my previous cheque and yet they promise me of paying for the fresh crops. I have a family to feed, a land to take care of and need to pay off my debts which I had borrowed in hope of getting paid this year. How do you think I can survive when the mills aren't paying us?" Khadim Hussain, a local farmer says he has set up a Jaggery unit at home and is selling it on net payment. Last year he had sold his harvest to Fatima Sugar Mills who cleared him of his dues after 3 months. 

This year he does not intend to wait for the mills and has rather set up his own unit which brings him more profit. The young but mature politician Moonis Elahi has urged the incumbent government to look deeply into the matter and ensure farmers get paid before the matter worsens and it becomes too difficult to solve. If mills do not get sugar canes there will be a huge sugar shortfall in the country.

Moonis Elahi Expresses Grief Over Jehangir Badar's Death

PPP's senior leader Jehangir Badar's death occurred on Sunday 13 November 2016 due to cardiac arrest. The senior leader was a close aide of Benazir Bhutto and was always in the center light whenever he stepped on the stage. Moonis Elahi expressed grief and sorrow over his death and said "despite our political differences, he was a good person and I pray may his soul rest in peace".  

Lately Jehangir Badar had reduced his political activities due to his ailment but he was still not forgotten in the political world of Pakistan. He was an avid supporter of democracy and had even been imprisoned during Gen Zia ul Haq's martial law. It is a day PPP has lost a loyal leader who never backed out even in tough times.

Moonis Elahi Says CPEC Completed Due to Gen Raheel Sharif's Efforts

Gawadar received its first Chinese convoy on 12 Nov 2016. Moonis Elahi congratulated the people of Balochistan as the army led CPEC will surely bring prosperity in the province that has long suffered ignorance. Opening an international trade route always benefits the people of the region economically and socially. 

India tried to sabotage the project through various antics but has failed in its evil plans.

Pakistan on the whole will reap its rewards and Gen Raheel Shareef will be remembered as the cwho has helped Pakistan establish an international trade route with its closest ally China. Moonis Elahi says even the incumbent government acknowledges it was not capable to have completed the project had the army not helped.

Donald Trump Will Deport Upto 3 Million Immigrants

As the world now eagerly awaits what will be America's new working strategy, Donald Trump the new elected president has his teeth bare against illegal immigrants living in the US. While his intentions are certainly for the benefit of his country, Moonis Elahi fears many Pakistani citizens living without documents in the US would soon be sent back home.

Moonis Elahi is of view the current government should start making arrangements before hand to receive Pakistanis deported from America. Pakistan has always wanted to have better relations with USA and our consulate in USA should work to assist all those people who would be sent back to their homeland.
