Federal Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry has bashed the officers for their illegal practices.

In Dec 2019, Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari had criticized the government for removing more than 800,000 beneficiaries of the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP).

The PPP chairman had accused the government of “doling out government benefits only to the moneyed class” saying it was creating poverty and unemployment in the country.

“The PTI government has taken total U-Turns on its pre-election promises of providing 10 million jobs and 5 million houses. Instead, it is overseeing mass unemployment, mass homelessness in the name of ‘anti-encroachment’, and multiplying poverty through its ruthless anti-poor policies,” he had said.
