Easy to say that. But had he not used electables and made alliances with the likes of MQM and PMLQ, he would not have been able to form a govt.
Forming a govt in 2018 was absolutely essential, as it saved the country from default. In the last 4 years, the fx reserves have gone up, CAD is down, exports are up, remittances are up, and growth has been maintained. Agriculture production, textile, car manufacturing, cellphone manufacturing, IT services are all at record levels. The IK govt was also able save billions through settlements of IPPs, Karkay, and Rekodiq. In addition to all this, sehat card, ehsaas, food subsidies, and kamyab programs have helped millions.
NONE OF THIS would have happened if he hadn't formed a government.
So, sure, we can blame him for using lotas. But I think the cost of not using these lotas was just too great.
