“People gradually realize that there isn’t a wheat crisis or scandal; there has been an attempt to stir up controversy over petty issues, and over the last 12 years, the nation’s production and demand targets have significantly changed,” Anwarul Haq Kakar stated.

What sort of wheat scandal, Kakar wondered, where the item is getting cheaper instead of getting more expensive?

During the previous government’s tenure, we did not permit the private sector to import more wheat, according to the former caretaker prime minister. Private importers import wheat in order to meet supply and demand principles in the market.

He argued, “How can we be accused of corruption when the PTI government released this SRO for the import of wheat?”

Anwarul Haq Kakar replied in response to a question that the media had made up this story and that he had not received any offer from the government regarding a position.

“I am an independent senator serving in the Senate along with Mohsin Naqvi and Faisal Vawda. We are representatives of the federation, and our mandate has been granted by our provincial members. Neither our voter nor their identity is secret, nor is the agenda unknown.
