The government has dropped another inflation bomb on already inflation-stricken masses on 21st January, 2021 by increasing per unit cost of electricity by Rs. 1.95/- This increase will lead to a further increase in the rate of inflation in the country. It is noteworthy that instead of improving the transmission system and minimizing the losses, the Federal Government is adopting an easy way of burdening the people by increasing the rate of electricity. Likewise, one of the major reasons for the continuous increase in the Prices of electricity is the failure of Federal Government to control circular debt of the power sector. As per reports, power sector’s circular debt went past Rs. 2.30/- trillion, and it has been increasing at a rate of Rs. 31.2 billion per month. The increase in circular debt shows poor governance of the incumbent government in power sector. It is therefore, requested to suspend the routing proceedings of the House and discuss the matter, immediately.” Sd/- Syed Naveed Qamar Raja Pervaiz Ashraf Shazia Marri Mr. Abdul Qadir Patel Members National Assembly The Motion was fixed for discussion on Friday the 29th January, 2021 by Mr. Deputy Speaker. \INTRODUCTION OF BILLS 3-4 MR.

    EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT 2014 - 2019 Delegation for relations with South Asia DRAFT REPORT on the 10th EP/Pakistan Interparliamentary Meeting (Islamabad & Lahore) 16 / 20 February 2015 by Ms. Jean Lambert, Chair of the Delegation ------------ 05/03/2015 PK/am 1/18 EN EN Introduction The last time the EP South Asia Delegation also led by Ms Jean Lambert MEP, visited Pakistan, was in late 2012; the country was already in pre-electoral mood, 6 months before the elections that saw the victory of the PML-N. This was the first democratic transition from one elected civilian government to another in Pakistan’s modern history – and recognised as such by the EU, which fielded an EOM led by Chief Observer Michael Gahler MEP; Richard Howitt MEP had led, at the time, the EP Delegation which was part of the overall observation team. The 2012 talks had focused on the steps taken by Islamabad in rule of law and good governance issues, which had helped the country successfully apply for the EU’s special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance – or, more colloquially, the GSP+ scheme, in effect since 1.1.2014. This arrangement, which was examined by the EP Plenary in December 2013, entails enhanced trade preferences, i.e. the full removal of tariffs on essentially the same products as those covered by GSP. MEPs had thus welcomed the ratification of all the major human rights conventions directly linked to the scheme, as well as the lifting of a series of reservations on many of those, such as the ICCPR or the CAT.
