ISLAMABAD: A one-on-one hard talk was held between Federal Minister for Energy Hammad Azhar of the PTI, and former finance minister Miftah Ismael of the PMLN in Geo News talk show ‘Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Ke Saath’ on the issue of current gas crisis in the country.
Both the political leaders held governments of each other responsible for the unprecedented gas shortage in even summer season. Miftah Ismael alleged that the industries in the country had never faced gas crisis in June earlier, and the fuel was not available in the country currently even if there was no dry-docking. He alleged that the government mismanaged the issue and the gas crisis could have been averted had the government acted wisely.
