Adding insult to injury

The PPP-led coalition government has fulfilled one more promise and given yet another 'relief' to 160 millions Pakistanis. The, otherwise soft spoken Foreign-cum-Petroleum Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi announced yet another bitter pill for the poor masses of this country. His parting comment that "the government would revise gas as well as oil pricing formulae for the companies within a month because they are fleecing the masses" only adds insult to injury. If that was the intention of this government, they could had done it three months back. -ABDUL RAUF, Fateh Jang, via e-mail, July 1
