Pakistan's ruling coalition led by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has landed in a tough spot as an important allied party of the party has expressed concerns over the rising inflation. In a series of tweets on Sunday, Pakistan Muslim League (Quaid-i-Azam) PML-Q senior leader and Punjab Assembly Speaker Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi said he is finding it hard to support the PTI government as an ally.

Geo TV quoted him as saying the PTI government of Prime Minister Imran Khan seemed to fail to mitigate the public sufferings and regretted that it was rubbing salt on the wounds of the public by presenting non-issues as serious issues.

He further said the situation will continue to worsen if immediate relief is not provided to people.

He urged the authorities to show seriousness in resolving the issues.

Meanwhile, a meeting of the PML-Q parliamentary party was held under the chairmanship of Elahi. All members said that the common man is suffering, and public representatives were finding it difficult to face the people in their constituencies, Geo TV reported.

They also said it is difficult to continue support in the coalition government.
