00:00Assalam-o-Alaikum. How are you?
00:02I am fine.
00:04What do you do?
00:05I work as a repairman.
00:07Tell me, is the increase in electricity bills affecting your life?
00:15Yes, a lot.
00:17Earlier, we only had a simple fan at home.
00:21Now, we don't have the power to pay that bill.
00:26We used to get a bill of Rs. 1500-2000.
00:29Now, we get a bill of Rs. 14,000-15,000.
00:31So, it has increased by 10 times.
00:33Yes, this is 100% true.
00:35There is no lie in this.
00:37Now, when the bill has increased from Rs. 1500 to Rs. 15,000,
00:40has the income increased accordingly?
00:44If the income hasn't increased, then it has definitely decreased.
00:47Why? Because people's purchasing power has decreased.
00:51Because of this, there is no excitement in the market.
00:54Who do you think is responsible for all this?
00:56Those who have the power to make decisions are responsible.
01:03Those who decide our fate are responsible.
01:07We have decided their fate.
01:09Yes, we have decided their fate.
01:11And we are always deceived by them.
01:13Did you decide their fate?
01:15No, I didn't decide their fate.
01:17So, what should we do now?
01:19How can we fix this?
01:21We can only raise our voice.
01:24There are good people among those who listen to us.
01:27What is the most difficult thing for you financially?
01:31What is the most difficult thing for you to manage at home?
01:35I will tell you what I manage at home.
01:38We have a monthly income of Rs. 20,000-25,000.
01:43So, we used to do all the household chores.
01:50Now, if you calculate what we used to do in Rs. 25,000,
01:53it has increased to Rs. 40,000.
01:55So, our income is there.
01:57So, what do you do to meet the budget?
01:59We are eating the same food that we used to eat.
02:03We are selling something expensive.
02:05We are eating the same food that we used to eat.
02:10May God make it easy for you.
02:11Thank you very much.
02:12Assalamu Alaikum.
02:13How are you?
02:14You are still young.
02:15Yes.
02:16But the budget of people's homes has been ruined.
02:19Yes.
02:20Because of the electricity and petrol prices.
02:22Is it affecting you?
02:23Yes, it is affecting me a lot.
02:24Earlier, the maximum price was Rs. 1,000.
02:27Now, it is Rs. 1,500.
02:29A person earns Rs. 30,000 a month.
02:32How will he manage if he gets a bill of Rs. 15,000?
02:36We are not getting the same income.
02:40If I am working and my salary is Rs. 30,000,
02:43then I will have to pay Rs. 15,000.
02:45The household expenses are not being met in Rs. 30,000.
02:47So, the life of the poor is being affected a lot.
02:51May God make it easy for you.
02:52Assalamu Alaikum.
02:53How are you?
02:54Let's talk to you.
02:55How are you?
02:56What do you do?
02:57I do a private job.
02:58You do a private job.
02:59Yes.
03:00So, please tell us what the situation is like at the moment?
03:01How is the budget of people's homes?
03:03Electricity prices are increasing again.
03:04Our previous programs were not over.
03:07People are crying.
03:09I am paying rent.
03:11I have a salary of Rs. 50,000.
03:13The children's fees are also there.
03:15Electricity and gas is a big problem.
03:19Earlier, people were worried about food.
03:22Now, they are worried about electricity.
03:24So, ration has become a secondary option.
03:26Yes.
03:27Now, people are worried about electricity and gas.
03:32As you said, there is a salary class.
03:36Do you have to pay rent?
03:38Yes, I have to pay rent.
03:39Do you have enough money to buy food?
03:41Yes.
03:42It is difficult to survive.
03:44Okay.
03:45So, who is responsible for this?
03:47The government is responsible for this.
03:49We vote and elect them.
03:51We see them voting after five years.
03:54After that, they disappear.
03:56You said that the bill will be collected by you.
03:58You will go to the bank and find out that the government has paid.
04:01Nothing happens.
04:02People are bankrupt.
04:03They are humiliated.
04:04This is a failure.
04:05Nothing happens with them.
04:06Do you have any hope?
04:07Sir, I don't have any hope.
04:08They are young people.
04:09They are leaving the country.
04:10They are running away from the country.
04:11I don't have any hope from anyone.
04:12I don't have any hope.
04:13Okay.
04:14May Allah make it easy for you.
04:15May Allah make it easy for you.
04:16How are you?
04:17What do you do?
04:18I am a labourer.
04:19Do you work as a labourer?
04:20Yes.
04:21Is the bill being collected by you?
04:22No.
04:23How much is the bill?
04:24It is one lakh rupees for three months.
04:27One lakh rupees for three months?
04:29Yes, sir.
04:30Okay.
04:31Do you have any assistance?
04:32No.
04:33I am a labourer.
04:34I go out to work in the morning.
04:36I think that I will rob someone.
04:39I will complete my system.
04:41Otherwise, I am a labourer.
04:43It is difficult.
04:44It is very difficult.
04:45Okay.
04:46What is the major expense of your work?
04:48The main expense is of flour.
04:51Then petrol.
04:53After that, I have to go to work.
04:55At this time, I don't get involved in anything.
04:58I don't tell anyone that I am a thief.
05:01Basically, I am a thief myself.
05:03I choose the thieves myself.
05:04Okay.
05:05If I don't choose the thieves, then nothing will happen.
05:08They say that they have not chosen you.
05:09They have chosen you.
05:10Absolutely.
05:11None of your expectations have been fulfilled?
05:13No.
05:14Okay.
05:15May Allah give you ease.
05:16Peace be upon you.
05:17Peace be upon you too.
05:18How are you?
05:19I am fine.
05:20We are talking about the increase in the price of electricity and petrol.
05:22Do you think that ordinary people can afford it?
05:27Do you think that it will increase?
05:28Do you know what is the matter?
05:29We are not satisfied.
05:30We are not satisfied with Allah.
05:31Secondly, when it was cheaper than Rs. 35, then nothing happened.
05:34Now, it has increased to Rs. 15-17.
05:36Then we are screaming.
05:37When it was cheaper than Rs. 35, then nothing happened.
05:40Do you think that the prices are right now?
05:42No, they are not right.
05:43But when it was cheaper than Rs. 35, then no one said that we should reduce the rent of the bus.
05:48Okay, you are saying that.
05:49Yes.
05:50So, no one reduced the price?
05:51No one reduced it.
05:52The shopkeepers?
05:53Yes, the shopkeepers.
05:54No one reduced it.
05:55Here, the answer is that we are dead.
05:57But no one does it.
05:58Now, look, there are so many people in your locality who are going to give Zakat.
06:02There are hundreds.
06:03And how many are going to take it?
06:04We are thieves of Allah.
06:05We steal Zakat.
06:06What will we do?
06:07That is why you are saying that the situation is not getting better.
06:10Yes, the situation is not getting better.
06:11That is why we are thieves of Allah.
06:12May Allah make it easy for us.
06:13Assalam-o-Alaikum.
06:14How are you?
06:15I am fine.
06:16How are you?
06:17I am fine.
06:18What do you do?
06:19I work on a mobile phone.
06:20Okay, you work on a mobile phone.
06:21Yes.
06:22So, the situation is not getting better.
06:23Alhamdulillah.
06:24What is the situation of electricity and petrol?
06:25The electricity and petrol prices have increased.
06:26So, the mobile phones…
06:27So, you are not worried at all.
06:28No, no, I am worried.
06:29I am worried.
06:30Why not?
06:31Okay.
06:32Actually, the people who say that there is a mafia in the mobile market.
06:36The company has not increased the price yet.
06:38They have done it before.
06:39Okay.
06:40So, they have taken the goods worth 5-6 crores before.
06:43Okay.
06:44And now they are blackening the market.
06:46Now, the price of this phone is 29,000 rupees.
06:48Okay.
06:49Now, I have got this for 31,000 rupees.
06:50They are giving more than 2,000 rupees.
06:52Now, the companies have not increased the price of the mobile phones.
06:54So, the shopkeepers have done it before.
06:56As long as there is a mafia, nothing can be done in this country.
06:58From top to bottom, the whole system is bad.
07:01We say that the government changes.
07:03As long as this mafia is not correct, nothing can be done.
07:06So, you and all of us are the mafia in this country.
07:09Yes, you are absolutely right.
07:10So, what should we do?
07:11We have to fix it from somewhere.
07:12We say that we have to catch the rope from somewhere.
07:14This is the work of the government.
07:16They should be strict.
07:17The mafia is very strict.
07:19It increases the rates of sugar and flour in the market.
07:23So, the government should not do this.
07:25Okay.
07:26We can tell you.
07:27Okay.
07:28Thank you very much.
07:29Okay, sir.
07:30Obviously, we are talking to the common people.
07:31The goods transporters.
07:33Obviously, their employment depends on the prices of petrol.
07:37The more the prices increase, the more they will put a burden on the consumer or tolerate it.
07:42So, what is the point of view of the goods transporters?
07:45Let's show you and know how much they have been affected by the increase in the prices of petrol.
07:51Everything else is in its place.
07:53Electricity prices are in their place.
07:54Electricity bills are in their place.
07:56There has been an increase in the bills recently.
07:58That is in its place.
07:59But let's hear the voice of the goods transporters.
08:02Diesel prices in our country are increasing day by day.
08:06Diesel prices are increasing day by day.
08:14This is affecting the whole country.
08:16Everything is becoming expensive.
08:18It is becoming difficult for us to transport.
08:20The reason for this is that after every 15 days, we cannot do any work.
08:25We cannot do any contract.
08:27We cannot adjust our freight anywhere.
08:30This should be done by the government for at least 6 months.
08:33It should be done for 3 months.
08:35The first thing is that we need them on commercial vehicles.
08:39If they want to give relief to the public, they want to give relief to us.
08:42Then this price should be low.
08:44Internationally, our diesel prices are increasing due to the low currency.
08:51This is causing a storm of inflation.
08:53It is becoming difficult for us to drive.
08:55Our cars cannot drive on the road like that.
08:58Basically, it is a matter of demand and supply.
09:00This is affecting the industry.
09:02This is affecting everyone.
09:04Because things are expensive.
09:06Prices are increasing.
09:07But our demand and supply.
09:11Our public transport freight is increasing accordingly.
09:16We also try to increase.
09:19But we don't have demand.
09:21We are waiting in the market for an order to come out.
09:25Then we will go from one city to another.
09:28From one province to another.
09:30But because of this, we have a lot of problems.
09:33We don't have savings.
09:35If we have to drive to Karachi, it is about 1300 km.
09:39We have to spend 800 liters of petrol.
09:42Apart from that, we have toll plazas.
09:44There are other expenses.
09:46We have to drive on the motorway.
09:48They have started a new system.
09:50The accelerator has become a problem for us.
09:54On July 25, we called the entire Punjab and Peshawar.
10:01The reason is that we are not able to drive.
10:04The problems we are facing are increasing day by day.
