ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 28th Apr, 2022 ) :Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif after his swearing-in, within two weeks took drastic steps to overcome the inherited issues left behind by the previous government of PTI like that of price hike and loadshedding by making the stalled power units to function.
The prime minister had enforced certain steps to contain the spiraling price of commodities. Under his direction price of sugar was curtailed from Rs85 to Rs70 and 10 kg flour bag from Rs550 to Rs400.
According to a performance report shared by PM Office Media Wing on Wednesday, prime minister Shehbaz Sharif outperformed his former predecessor Imran Khan who could not even deliver during a span of four years tenure.
