Miftah Ismail’s Economy Bashing Presser Converts Into Trolling
The former finance minister was asked about the profits of his company and he immediately diverted the conversation
PML-N leader and former finance minister Miftah Ismail along with party spokesperson Maryam Aurangzeb held a press conference and started bashing the ruling government for shaking country’s economy but it all ended up in his trolling on social media due to an unwanted question he was asked.
Ismail assured that PML-N is making every possible effort to not let the ruling government’s anti-people budget pass.
Commenting on differences with the premier, Miftah Ismail said, “Prime Minister Imran Khan had already lost credibility and people were tired”.

He said, “This anti-people budget cannot pass, is there more room left to kill poor people? Is there more room for inflation? If not, come to your senses”.
During the presser, the former finance minister was asked about mammoth profits of his confectionery company CandyLand and he immediately diverted the conversation.
Whereas, Maryam Aurangzeb interrupted him and pointed towards announcing date of the Pre-Budget Economy Seminar.
