LARKANA: Pakistan Peoples Party-Shaheed Bhutto (PPP-SB) chairperson Ghinwa Bhutto has observed that the crises caused by coronavirus outbreak around the world heralds fall of capitalistic economy. She noted that capitalism was gradually crumbling.

She was speaking to local reporters after inaugurating a Covid-19 awareness camp held near Al-Murtaza House here on Friday.

She observed that developed countries had not only mapped out the plan but also managed and ensured meeting the requirements of daily wagers.

She sarcastically said that our rulers had to seek permission from IMF first to initiate such steps, adding that there were bleak chances of IMF allowing us to do that.

She said coronavirus had exposed the capitalist system and remarked that “it’s a lull before storm” as things would change after the crisis. It’s just a beginning ... a new raj would emerge, she predicted.

Ms Ghinwa asked her party workers to hold awareness camps in their respective areas to keep people abreast about the threat. She later distributed soaps, masks and sanitizers among the people.
