PTI Chairman Imran Khan has lashed out at the incumbent “fascist government”, saying it only thinking about “more coercive and oppressive measures to crush PTI” while the country’s economy is “crashing right before our eyes”.

“Dollar selling at Rs310 in the open market and there’s record backbreaking inflation in the country right now. While our debt is accumulating at the fastest rate ever, the economy is shrinking.

“All our annual tax revenue collections do not even cover the interest that we have to pay on our loans. And of course, to the PDM leadership, this historic devaluation of the rupee doesn’t matter because all their ill-gotten wealth is stashed abroad in dollars.

“It will be the people of Pakistan who will experience inflation and poverty while PDM leaders will be beneficiaries of this fall in rupee,” he tweeted.
