Prime Minister Imran Khan on Sunday talked to the people of Pakistan via a live session telephonic session and answered their questions.

At the beginning of the session, the premier said that it was his faith that the PTI government will aspire to work on the reasons Pakistan was built: an Islamic Welfare State.

Speaking to a caller regarding the issue of inflation in the country, the premier said: "The biggest challenge we face today is inflation and the rising prices of commodities. I am well aware and cognisant of the issues being faced by the common man due to rising prices.”

The premier then said that inflation is "not an issue occurring solely in Pakistan."

"I want my countrymen to understand that inflation is a global phenomenon caused due to the COVID-19 pandemic," he said. “From industrialised countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, to Europe and Japan, the entire world is faced with spiralling costs of living, a sharp increase in food prices, and a huge spike in energy prices.”

“Pandemics such as COVID-19 occur once in 100 years, it has had a global negative effect causing spiralling costs of living, and disrupting lives all across the world.”

Addressing the media of the country, the premier said that while it is the right of the media to criticise the government, it should refrain from resorting to propaganda and fake news.

"Our government is against mafias, and unfortunately, some elements within the media have also sided with them to spread negativity," he said.

Citing the 5.37% Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth of the country, the premier questioned the Opposition, the critics, and the media as to how the country is progressing if there was complete economic turmoil.

He also urged the Pakistani nation to follow the footsteps of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in order to progress.

Criticising Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif, the premier said: "I don't consider him the leader of the Opposition but a criminal of the nation."

The premier said that he is ready to talk to everyone — even if their views differ from his — but he is never going to negotiate with the corrupt.

"If I talk with the corrupt and give them NROs, then I will be deceiving the nation as well as my Allah," he said.

Answering a question about high taxes on imported mobile phones, the premier said that his government is trying to manufacture everything within the country, saying that manufacturing goods within the country is the only solution as importing goods from abroad is very expensive.

"Even the clothes I am wearing are made in Pakistan. I don't wear anything imported," the premier said, adding that the government is trying to document the economy so that tax collection could be increased.

"If we want to be a progressing nation, we have to pay taxes," he said.

The prime minister said that the PTI government will not only complete this tenure but it will also complete the next term.

The Prime Minister's Office has provided a landline number for citizens wanting to talk directly to the premier. They may dial 051-9224900.
