PM Khan okays 46% rise in gas tariff

[koolio]

If you read the main point why the price has gone up so high thanks to Godfather who has damn screwed the economy, like I said before PTI has to clean up the mess left behind by the corrupt looters, The SNGP had explained that it was purchasing natural gas from about 40 gas producers at an average rate of Rs629 per MBTU (Million British Thermal Unit) and selling at Rs399 per unit, with a net loss of about Rs230 per unit. now you tell me how is it possible to subsidise the costs when the gas company is buying at Rs629 per MBTU and selling at Rs399 with a net loss of around Rs230. its simply not sustainable in a depleted Pakistani economy.

a prudent and much-needed decision. the distortions, and there are many, need to be sorted out. they might hurt politically but IK has said he's not a politician.

Or tax rich people including the main establishment to recover and ease on the debt and the flexibility on the people who cannot afford to begin with? #Coward-Khan!

It is time to start Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline, don't put more burden on poor people...Show some spine since we are not getting any US aid money and weapons so I.K led Govt should have no fear of sanctions.

Recoveries and theft of Gas and utilities has to be made assured, price hikes are shortcuts, in this case 46% to much. For this recent meter reading method is to nonsense,. Govt should offer public the remote telemetry options by paying for it and installing advance meters and eliminated human factor in this as meter reader. State cant afford this expensive project but not an excuse too (China must have some economy solution). Who will opt to it will be genion and who will hide this their something not good abt it. Wapda should be on the most priority as most corrupted.

PTi shouldn't have talked BIG, now fulfil the agenda or face the criticism.
lowering gas & electricity prices agenda has gone down, instead they have increased the rates.

wrong, politics and polices should be kept different(in country like Pakistan)
EVERY PARTY HAS TALKED BIG
WHAT MATTERS WHO DELIVERS REALISTICALLY

what will guage PTI performance will be its economic development, human spending, education and refroms not gas and electricity prices under subsidies and fiscal deficit that will ulitmately chock the country

what do you expect rupee just devalued by 25%..???
i mean we should have this much common sense

no cost of doing business doesn't depend upon this..
the problem lies in taxation, ease of doing buisness and tarrifs
zero tax the export and problem solved

while whole fiscal problem lies in wastage of 1 trillion rupees in public sector

I am qualified enough to understand what you are saying --- common man will judge them with what they promised. if shahbaz sharif can be trolled for 6 months electricity promise, why this should be different for PTi ??

The message went down with common man is that the govt instead of arresting thieves, burdened us with increase in gas and electricity prices.

people rejected shabaz because he couldn't deliver in 5 years not that he couldn't deliver in 6 months

common people do understand this

Common man doesn't know a thing about devaluation, trade deficit etc.,

Reducing gas/electricity prices was from PTi's 100 days agenda -- don't tell me that all this was politics gimmicks.

 

[A.A. Khan]

IT is still early days so PTI won't get that much flak that it deserves, but they promised to rein in bureaucratic mafia in their 100 days plan. They promised austerity and accountability plus reforming civil services act. The price hikes and other mismanagement lies in the bureaucratic mafias that have been constructed to continue their corrupt interests. They go in the panel with their lies and fudged figures asking for 123% to 200% increase and the cabinet okays 46% thinking they got a bargain. This malicious bureaucrat mafia knows how to pursue their corruption and PTI knew about it also. Gas price, electricity per unit price hikes will only damage PTI credibility and their voters will think of it as more of the same. ITs a coalition govt. with a strong opposition it needs to deliver in peoples lives, media support won't help them much. They won't last if they get dictated by the corrupt mafias in bureaucracy.

46% thats way too high increase.....

300% increase was demanded in summary sent to PM by OGRA. And it was also mentioned before PM if raise in tarrifs doesn't happen gas institutions will broke eventually
