Masses, traders pinning high hopes on Freedom March: PEW.

ISLAMABAD -- The Pakistan Economy Watch (PEW) on Sunday said the masses and business community has pinned high hopes on the JUI-F led anti-government 'Freedom March'.

The masses and business community distressed due to high inflation, surging unemployment, and other issues are hoping relief in the aftermath of the protest, it said.

Masses and the business community has run out of patience as the failures of the government on all the fronts and economic stagnation has left them confused and upset, said Dr. Murtaza Mughal, President PEW.

Masses think that they have been cheated in the name of a change and now the only way to get relief is through agitation, he added.

Dr. Murtaza Mughal said that the recent wave of popularity of PML-N is not due to the efforts of leaders of the part but the blunders of the current government which has made life very difficult for everyone.
