05:11 We should create awareness among people about the law and the law should be enforced in a way that Pakistan will not be able to progress in any way and there will not be happiness in Pakistan.
05:29 There will not be peace in Pakistan and Pakistan will be left alone on the international level. These were the things we said.
05:39 But, we have to think about it, Maria. I am not scoring points. I want to say that this is a time to think about the policy makers, the leaders of all institutions and the political forces.
06:04 How much interference has been made? How much the people are injured or angry? If their shadow falls on someone, people think that they do not deserve to be represented.
06:25 Even if you see that in 9, 10, May, 75 years, no one dared, no one dared, no one thought, but one person did everything.
06:39 Despite this, he has been voted. But if he has been voted, then it is more important to think that if the people, the nation, still vote for that position, despite seeing everything.
06:56 And we are also seeing that they are not ready to talk to the political forces, but they are still open to the same 9, 10, May criminals from the establishment.
07:11 I will come to this, Mr. Javed Latif. I will come to this, I will not score points.
07:16 Maria, one second, please. Please give me a chance. You see that despite the failure of the confidence, the same Imran Khan, who was called Mir Jafar Sadak, kept meeting him in the presence of Arif Alvi.
07:36 Only his position was that we should be adopted again. In the same way, he talked about America by waving the cipher that we are slaves.
07:46 On the other hand, the policy of Imran Khan was that he took lobbying from the big investment.
07:52 What should the institutions think about their relations with the parties? What should the people think about the law and justice?
07:58 My question is, what is the Noon League thinking? What is the Noon League thinking?
08:06 Do they want to start the struggle now, after six months, after November?
08:12 Or do they want to sit in the government, but want to increase the intensity of the struggle? What are you thinking?
08:19 No, Maria, one thing is that we can never imagine, even if we lose our lives, that we will imagine 9-10 May.
08:34 But I definitely think, and thousands of people like me think, that if you want to joke with those who do 9-10 May, if you want to joke with the facilitators of 9-10 May,
08:53 if you want to joke with the masterminds of 9-10 May, if you want to make a deal, then I am sure that 9-10 May will be a big year.
09:11 Mr. Lateef, I am asking you a different question. What you have said, this is what the movement justice has to do, this is what the policy makers have to do.
09:20 I am coming back to my question. What has the Noon League thought? What do they have to do?
09:24 Yesterday you said that Mr. Nawaz Sharif will tell us. Now, the statements are under construction, the statements are in the process of being made,
09:29 the statements are in the process of being made, the statements are in the process of being made, they are thinking about it. Where are you standing?
09:34 Look, Maria, the election has been chosen on 8th February. On 8th February, just as the free elections should have been held,
09:45 I say that the leaders of the institutions are not involved. I say that just as in the past,
09:55 a decision was made about a community that it should be removed, it should be brought back, that decision was not made.
10:04 But unfortunately, the leaders of the institutions will have to look at their own mistakes or whatever has happened,
10:18 which has been pointed out by different people in different ways, why did it happen? It should not have happened.
10:25 There have been regional elections. There were no complaints of 2% in the regional elections.
10:34 So, Mr. Javed Nadeem, you have not made an agreement in your party.
10:38 In the same way, on 8th February, Rana Sanaullah Sahib is saying on record that he has lost and he is so sure that you have also lost.
10:45 I read his exact words, I also make you listen if you want to listen. He is saying that you are complaining that why Rana Tanveer won and why did I lose.
10:52 This is the view in your party. Listen to it, then I will talk to you.
10:56 As much as I am sure of my election results, I am so sure that Javed Lateef Sahib has also lost genuinely.
11:07 His complaint is that I have lost, why did Rana Tanveer win?
11:11 If Rana Tanveer had lost, then Javed Lateef Sahib would have been extremely peaceful.
11:18 Javed, in your party, the problem is with Rana Tanveer, it is your internal politics.
11:25 Look, Maria, I have said before that I will not talk about my personal issues.
11:35 Because the state, my community, my community, the way they are stuck, I will not answer to anyone who says anything about me.
11:49 Yes, I will say that someone knows about their defeat, but in the fourth district, they do not know about the results of the other person on the same day.
11:59 I don't know if anyone has any knowledge, so I can't say anything.
12:05 But I will definitely say that look, Maria, the Zimni elections have been held on 22 seats for one day.
12:12 That election can be fair and free.
12:15 Even the opponents do not have any objections.
12:23 So, on 8th February, there should have been such an election, on which people would not have objected, on which people would not have made their reservations or what I have said.
12:35 So, Javed Lateef Sahib, do you think there is no objection to the Zimni elections?
12:39 You think the Gujarat elections were the right choice?
12:42 The internet had to be shut down in Lahore, only on six seats.
12:45 Was the atmosphere right? Did you give such a sense of atmosphere in relation to the election?
12:52 Maria, tell me that there were two elections in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on the same day.
12:59 Were they fair and free?
13:01 Wasn't the internet shut down there?
13:05 And if you say that the election of Dera Ismail Khan was fair and free, then I will say that the Gujarat elections were also fair and free.
13:17 So, what do I say? I have questions on the whole process of the election.
13:23 What do you think?
13:25 In your opinion, the Zimni elections were fair and free.
13:29 There is no objection on any seat.
13:31 Maria, when people ask questions, then the question should be complete.
13:40 I am not saying that you have a right to ask questions, but you have the right to answer.
13:49 I am saying that on 8th February, two statements were made or two opinions were made.
13:59 One was that Punjab had to win because it was their government.
14:03 And the other was that they had to win because they had left their seats.
14:09 So, I will say that in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, they had to win because they had left their seats and the Zimni elections were in their government.
14:21 You will see the same in Gujarat.
14:24 Okay, they have lost in Bajor, but this is a matter of negotiations.
14:29 Irfan Siddiqui spoke in the Senate yesterday.
14:31 He said that he wants to talk to Moulana Fazlur Rehman, Imran Khan.
14:37 If he can talk to Achak Zahid, then he should also talk to PMLN.
14:41 Is this his own opinion or is he talking on behalf of Nawaz Sharif?
14:46 Because PTI answers that we should first find out if this is a formal offer from the PMLN base or is this their wish?
14:55 Look, Maria, as far as inviting a political party to a discussion is concerned, whether it is in the government or in the opposition.
15:08 When we were in the opposition, we had said that we will come and live in Misaqe.
15:14 We said this in Imran Khan's presence.
15:16 We said this in the first year.
15:18 If he is in the government today, then the representative of his party or the senator who is related to his party is standing on the same forum and saying that we come and do discussions.
15:31 This is a good thing, not a bad thing.
15:33 But I must say this, which I said in the beginning, that look, Maria, you keep joking with political parties.
15:42 It should be.
15:44 But this is not the way that you can say that we are slaves if you are waving a cypher.
15:50 You can incite people against a state and you can hire a firm for your lobbying for the money that was stolen from the government of Khaybar Pakhtunkhwa.
16:04 You can lobby for my PTI, for Imran Khan, who was being incited by you to be a slave.
16:14 On the other hand, you are telling us that you are telling the establishment that they have overthrown my government.
16:20 This is Mir Jafar Mir Sadiq and he is the cause of the destruction in 75 years.
16:26 You have been saying this, but on the other hand, instead of joking with political forces, you are saying that if we joke, we will do it with the army chief.
16:40 Sir, he also added another sentence.
16:43 He says that you do not have the power.
16:45 Mr. Shabaz Sharif does not have the power.
16:48 He can talk to anyone at the moment.
16:50 We will talk to those who have all the powers.
16:53 Do you think that the political class, Mr. Shabaz Sharif has the power?
16:58 If I agree with him that who is powerful and we have to joke with them, then these are the people who are giving power to the establishment on 9th and 10th of May.
17:17 If they had not committed this crime on 9th and 10th of May, then the people who were sitting in the institutions for 20-22 years,
17:29 they were saying that we have become apolitical, we do not want to take any step beyond the law.
17:38 Every institution should work within the law.
17:41 This was the victory of the Pakistani nation when this statement came.
17:46 That day was the victory when the act of self-contradiction in the institutions began.
17:52 But this person, while fulfilling a global agenda, to divide Pakistan,
18:01 from day one, he has been dividing Pakistan's politics.
18:11 He fulfilled his agenda on 9th and 10th of May with many objections.
18:16 When he attacked the defence institutions of Pakistan,
18:21 from that day on, the institutions of Pakistan became strong and the democracy became weak.
18:26 Sir, but the issue that we are going to talk about now, because eventually all the issues are solved on the table of dialogue.
18:35 The biggest objection is that Mr. Shabaz is not in power.
18:39 I have the same question again.
18:40 Do you think that Mr. Shabaz is in power?
18:43 Can he initiate, lead or conduct this dialogue?
18:47 Maria, I would like to say one more thing.
18:51 I would like to say that in Pakistan, to stabilize, to reduce the spread of Pakistan,
19:02 to bury the spread of Pakistan, to form a nation,
19:07 he would like to conduct a dialogue with anyone.
19:11 But I would like to say one thing, that the mastermind of 9th and 10th of May,
19:22 no one has the power to deal with him.
19:27 And if he does, I have no power to stop anyone.
19:34 But I am saying this as a political worker, that he will invite people to do a bigger deal than 9th and 10th of May.
19:49 If the accused of 9th and 10th of May,
19:54 Sir, then why are the people of your Jamaat inviting them?
19:58 Rana Sinhaullah is talking again and again.
20:00 Irfan Siddiqui is talking again and again.
20:03 This is coming from PM LN.
20:06 Sir, your Jamaat is inviting them.
20:10 This is coming from your Jamaat, Mr. Javed Lateef.
20:14 If you will punish the accused of 9th and 10th of May,
20:17 even if they don't punish the accused,
20:22 then you can imagine that such a deal will not happen again.
20:26 Can you hear me, Mr. Javed Lateef?
20:29 I think he is not able to hear you.
20:30 Anyway, we will reconnect him soon.
20:33 Because my question is that this conversation is being done by Rana Sinhaullah.
20:37 This is being done by Irfan Siddiqui.
20:40 So, is there no agreement on the party that this should be a dialogue?
20:45 Because we are seeing a lot of conflicting positions within PM LN.
20:50 So, if we ask Mr. Javed Lateef about this,
20:54 we would like to ask him to talk to the PTI if he can connect with Mr. Javed Lateef.
21:02 Otherwise, you can talk to him on the phone.
21:05 Because the conversation is being done by him and he is getting disturbed.
21:09 But anyway, this means that there is a conflict in PM LN as well.
21:14 Should there be a dialogue or not?
21:21 Let's take a break here.
21:24 We will talk to Mr. Butt after the break.
21:27 We will talk to him about what is happening in PM LN.
21:30 Welcome back.
21:34 PM LN is looking for a statement.
21:37 The truth is that there is a lot of controversy going on and people are voting on it.
21:43 Yesterday, we leaders of Pakistan Muslim Nawaz held a press conference.
21:47 I would like to show you the visuals.
21:49 This is the leadership that could not win its seats in this electoral process.
21:55 There are some grudges.
21:57 They think that they were deliberately defeated.
22:00 Opponents think that they were not affected by the form 45-47 facilities provided by the party.
22:07 They are upset about this as well.
22:09 But anyway, if we look at it clearly, these are the people who have not been inducted in the current PM LN government.
22:19 Do they not want to become a part of the government of their own free will?
22:22 There are two different camps.
22:25 Shahbaz camp is running the government on a technocratic basis.
22:28 Nawaz camp wants to save politics.
22:31 We will talk about this.
22:32 We have with us the new Mashroof Butt.
22:33 Head of Investigation, Cell ARY News.
22:35 Thank you very much, Butt.
22:37 What was the reason behind this press conference yesterday?
22:40 And these are the people who have complaints about the election process.
22:46 If we want to set up a narrative, then the people who are winning the elections should have been included.
22:51 And they are also on an important stage in the PM LN.
22:55 The party has been restructuring.
22:57 But we did not see the same voice that is being heard in Punjab or in Vifak.
23:06 Maria, there is a difference between the people who were sitting in the press conference and those who are sitting.
23:12 The reasonable people, or the people whose voice is very strong in the party,
23:20 are the people and officials who have already accepted their defeat on the first day.
23:25 Rana Sinaullah, Haji Saad Rafiq.
23:27 They have no complaints.
23:30 The only person who has complained the most is Javed Lateef.
23:35 And he has lost the most margin.
23:37 In fact, a very important person, I do not take his name because I did not talk to him,
23:43 but I am telling you about this important person.
23:46 He quoted Javed Lateef and said that the problem is not that who has lost.
23:55 The problem is that the people who have won are being accused and the PTA is accusing them.
24:00 That the 30-40 seats that you win are ours and you win wrongly.
24:05 This is not an issue.
24:06 Why have the people who have lost by taking the margin lost?
24:08 I am quoting you from the important person of the Noon League.
24:13 These are the exact words.
24:15 So this is a personal problem.
24:17 And that is why Rana Sinaullah, Haneen Fawazi, all of them,
24:21 Javed Lateef, and you are also telling Mian Sahib that their circle will open.
24:30 So then the party will rise a little.
24:31 So these seven people who were sitting together, it was okay to show,
24:35 but there is a difference in them.
24:37 The reasonable people who have a position in the party,
24:40 one is Rana Sahib, and now it is about giving importance to Haji Saad Rafiq.
24:46 And both of them are being asked to come to the government.
24:50 Actually, the problem is that the Shabaz Shaif government and even in Punjab,
24:58 they have a lot of problems.
25:01 Earlier they used to enjoy bureaucracy, everything was with them.
25:05 And when Mr. Khan was there, he used to say that this bureaucracy is of the Noon League,
25:09 I am having a problem in running the government.
25:11 But this is the first time that the Noon League is also facing those problems.
25:16 Whether it is through Mohsin Naqvi Sahib or some other people,
25:20 through whom they have these problems that they are not using their government or power in that way.
25:28 One minute, Bhatt Sahib, what you said, that at the moment,
25:31 on the topic of bureaucracy, because we are seeing this big issue these days,
25:34 that there are some scandals of Mariam Nawaz Sahiba of the Punjab government,
25:38 who endorse her or break her on their channel, that is Mohsin Naqvi Sahib's channel.
25:46 So it is very clear, is this issue very serious or is it a small fight,
25:52 you have to do posturing, that if you don't listen to us,
25:56 then we can bring more news from somewhere.
25:59 Are these small threats or is it a deeper matter?
26:03 Yes, you are right, but the matter is deeper.
26:08 I will tell you the exact situation, that why Rana Sanaullah Sahib was suddenly told that
26:14 we need you very badly, and this is what Shabaz Sharif is saying.
26:19 This is a very important thing.
26:21 In the beginning, they were told, they both refused,
26:24 Saad Rafiq also said, the matter is over, and he started his political narrative.
26:29 But now Shabaz Sharif said, and he is also trying to get Nawaz Sharif's recommendation in this,
26:35 and before Nawaz Sharif went to China, almost Shabaz Sharif,
26:39 to some extent this is news, he has convinced,
26:43 that Rana Sanaullah and such strong people should bring them to the government,
26:47 because some people are not being handled by us, they are challenging our authority.
26:53 Even now you see, Atta Tarad, or such people, even Haj Asaf,
26:57 the way they have come, they do not have that power,
27:00 they are not saying anything to anyone,
27:02 rather they are making their authority, their government, even weaker.
27:06 Now they need strong people, who come and their opposition,
27:10 such as Mohsin Naqvi or anyone,
27:13 even, let me tell you, that Rana Sanaullah has also been told,
27:18 that if you want in Punjab, then come to Punjab, or in Wafaaq.
27:22 The problem is that you have to handle such people at both places,
27:28 who are challenging them.
27:30 Down, in fact, it is more needed now,
27:32 you see that two or three women are sitting,
27:35 a Parvez Rashid, no one is in contact with them,
27:38 then there is a personality, a form,
27:41 that is missing now, even in Punjab.
27:44 Now both need it, both are saying that we need people.
27:48 Now Rana Sahab and Saad Rafiq say that the responsibility of the party,
27:54 which we have to make statements, will be difficult in the government,
27:57 you understand from this, that they are going towards the resistance with full force.
28:01 In fact, let me tell you one thing,
28:04 that Mian Sahab, before going to China,
28:08 made an audio message to Rana Sanaullah,
28:12 in which he said that you had spoken to Shabaz Sharif,
28:18 and he was telling you this,
28:20 so he has spoken to me,
28:22 and I will come from China, then you do whatever you want,
28:26 and then you meet Shabaz Sahab.
28:28 Then they met, when the Iranian President came,
28:30 Shabaz Sharif and Rana Sanaullah,
28:32 Shabaz Sharif said to him that you have received a message,
28:37 Mian Sahab said yes, I have received this audio message,
28:40 then he said that the decision is that whatever we want,
28:44 may be that, Mian Sahab will come back,
28:47 you understand that right now they need both things,
28:50 they have to make statements,
28:52 and that is the statement of the people,
28:54 and it is clearly said that the people like resistance,
28:58 that is why Rana Sahab said in the interview that people love it,
29:01 and this was our statement,
29:03 we have been told here and there,
29:05 very interesting, very instructive, thank you very much.
29:08 And they have to come to the government,
29:10 and the government should not separate them,
29:12 Maria, I am understanding this very important,
29:15 that they have to start the resistance in the government,
29:20 and it will be done with the name of Allah,
29:24 and this matter can increase,
29:26 and this can also happen,
29:28 if they have to say this,
29:30 then they are ready to say this,
29:34 because they know that what has happened,
29:36 now there will be no chance for them in future,
29:39 yes, those who are enjoying,
29:41 they are definitely resisting in this,
29:43 like the Punjab government,
29:45 they say that here our mandate is complete,
29:47 we should do it here,
29:49 here also mischief is happening,
29:51 one person is doing it with loyalty,
29:53 but on the other side,
29:55 there is a loyal government,
29:57 there is a coalition,
29:59 the people's party is putting full pressure on them,
30:01 you have to stay like this,
30:03 and the most interesting thing you have told,
30:07 that Rana Sanaullah,
30:09 because he has to face a lot of challenges,
30:12 Rana Sanaullah,
30:14 the way he is playing on the front foot,
30:17 Nawaz Sharif and Shabaz Sharif are on the same page,
30:20 thank you very much,
30:22 Naeem Ashraf Badr is with us,
30:24 we will come back on the break,
30:26 Wifaq had to intervene directly,
30:28 on the issue of farmers,
30:30 now the loyal government is picking up the wheat,
30:34 we will talk on the break,
30:36 how the Punjab government was creating a crisis,
30:40 Wifaq had to intervene for that,
30:42 we will talk on the break.
30:44 Welcome back,
30:49 the issue of farmers' crop in Punjab,
30:51 was increasing before the crisis,
30:53 Wifaq has intervened in this,
30:55 and the minister of agriculture,
30:57 Shabaz Sharif,
30:58 has increased the metric ton of wheat,
31:01 from 1.4 metric ton,
31:03 to 1.8 million metric ton,
31:05 and the capacity has been increased,
31:08 and Wifaq has come on the front foot,
31:11 but what is the real problem?
31:13 The problem is that,
31:15 the wheat crop has started in Punjab,
31:18 and the price of wheat is less than,
31:21 the fixed price of the government,
31:24 and the government is forced to sell it,
31:27 the government has fixed the government rate,
31:30 of 3900 rupees per month,
31:32 which was 4000 rupees per month last year,
31:35 according to the farmers,
31:37 instead of the fixed rate,
31:39 they are buying it for 3100 or 3200 rupees per month,
31:43 according to the Punjab government,
31:45 26000 metric ton of wheat is available in the stores,
31:48 we cannot buy 40 lakh metric ton of wheat,
31:51 which will cause a loss of 3 to 400 million rupees,
31:55 so why is this loss happening?
31:57 why is this crisis happening?
31:59 The present Punjab government says,
32:01 that the Nigrahan government has done all the work,
32:03 and has taken all the decisions,
32:05 because of which,
32:06 the surplus wheat,
32:07 which is available for the farmers,
32:09 the government does not have the capacity to buy it,
32:11 so because of the import of the KTK government,
32:14 the Punjab government cannot buy their crops,
32:17 so what is happening now?
32:19 The farmers said that they will protest outside the Punjab assembly on 29th,
32:24 and will sit there until their problem is solved.
32:27 After this,
32:28 a letter is written to the Prime Minister of Pakistan,
32:31 what does the letter say?
32:33 The letter says that,
32:35 the inquiry is requested to damage the wheat,
32:37 the wheat and the national treasure.
32:40 Unnecessarily,
32:41 the country's national treasure lost 1 billion dollars due to the import of wheat,
32:45 the Ministry of Food and Rural Affairs,
32:47 imported more than 35 lakh metric tons of wheat,
32:50 the farmers lost 380 billion dollars due to the import of wheat,
32:53 and the government lost 104 billion dollars.
32:57 The Pasco and Subahi courts of the Ministry of Food and Rural Affairs,
33:00 had more than 43 lakh metric tons of wheat by 1st April,
33:05 due to the wrong decision of the Commerce Ministry,
33:07 no action was taken on the import of wheat,
33:10 and the wheat ships were being looted in Karachi till March.
33:15 Today, we have seen that the Prime Minister of Pakistan has instructed that,
33:18 the government will buy the wheat.
33:21 We will talk about this.
33:22 We have with us Khalid Hussain Bart,
33:24 the Central Chairman of the Farmer's Union.
33:25 Now, this protest of yours is not going to happen.
33:27 Your problem has been solved,
33:29 because the government has made it clear that,
33:32 they want to deal with this situation,
33:37 they want to end this.
33:38 Is this crisis over for now, Mr. Bart?
33:41 Thank you very much, Madam PM.
33:44 Whenever we tried to raise the voice of the farmers,
33:46 you have always raised it,
33:48 and our problems are solved to a great extent.
33:50 Thank you for the airway.
33:52 Today, when they have given an extra order of 4 lakh metric tons,
33:57 Madam PM, there are some districts in Punjab,
34:01 where the Pasco does not buy wheat,
34:03 their centre is present.
34:05 So, this 4 lakh metric tons,
34:08 is bought by Pasco in the whole of Pakistan.
34:11 Until the Punjab government does not buy our wheat,
34:16 this problem cannot be solved.
34:19 We have such areas,
34:21 where the Pasco has not even provided a centre,
34:23 there are food centres.
34:25 So, we cannot survive with this 4 lakh metric tons.
34:28 This is a great thing.
34:29 The Prime Minister heard our voice,
34:32 and said that we will buy wheat by increasing the metric tons.
34:36 But, we cannot survive with this wheat,
34:41 because this year we have 40 to 50 lakh metric tons of wheat.
34:47 So, where should we take it?
34:49 You know, last year, Madam PM,
34:52 we had kept 20 to 25 tons of wheat in our homes.
34:56 So, the Taseeldar came,
34:57 he gave us an FRA,
34:59 and took the wheat from our homes.
35:03 He said that we cannot keep wheat.
35:05 We have two crops,
35:07 one is wheat and the other is sugarcane,
35:09 we cannot keep the rate of the crop as per our wish,
35:13 the government keeps it.
35:15 Last year, the rate of wheat was 4000,
35:18 at that time, the electricity bill was 25 to 30 rupees per unit,
35:28 and when we cultivated the wheat,
35:30 we sowed the same 3500 crop in the fields,
35:34 the mafia gave us the rate in 6000,
35:36 the DAP gave us the rate in 16000,
35:38 and the unit rate in 70 rupees.
35:40 And I cannot tell you how many times the rate of diesel has increased.
35:43 So, this is injustice,
35:44 that they reduced the rate with us,
35:46 and then, if you reduce the rate,
35:49 and if we have a program to loot,
35:52 then the rate which the Punjab government has decided,
35:56 they should buy our wheat from that rate.
35:58 So, Khalid sahib, you have told us your issue,
36:01 you have told us clearly,
36:02 and now, your alliance has announced this.
36:06 What are you discussing with the Punjab government?
36:08 Are they giving you any reassurance,
36:10 or they don't want to talk to you,
36:12 or they are saying that this is the situation,
36:14 and this will remain the same.
36:16 What is the answer when you engage?
36:18 Absolutely, they don't want to talk to us,
36:22 they don't ask us anything,
36:23 in fact, since yesterday, the administration has become active.
36:26 The DPO and the DCO are calling us,
36:28 our people, and they are saying,
36:29 "Beware, if you go, you will be arrested."
36:32 Look, we are such oppressed farmers,
36:34 that we spend money on our own land,
36:38 and we harvest the wheat ourselves.
36:40 And one sugar mill,
36:43 which bought sugar from me five months ago,
36:47 10 billion, one sugar mill has been giving to my farmers for five months.
36:52 Is there a problem with that?
36:54 Is there any IMF pressure?
36:56 And similarly, we have to give 8 billion to one sugar mill,
36:59 and we have been saving money for five months.
37:02 And now, my wheat farmers,
37:04 believe me,
37:05 in South Punjab, wheat was harvested a month ago,
37:08 and a month and a half ago, it was harvested in Sindh.
37:11 Wheat is lying outside,
37:12 you know the rainy season,
37:14 we are such helpless and helpless farmers,
37:17 and if we are going out,
37:18 and the Punjab government,
37:20 it's been 15 days since we said that we will protest in front of the Punjab Assembly,
37:24 they didn't even ask us,
37:26 in fact, since yesterday,
37:27 we are being threatened that if you come,
37:29 it won't be good for you.
37:31 Maria Mehmar Sahiba,
37:32 farmers are a brave people,
37:34 who are not asked by anyone.
37:36 Up to this point, you are the union of the protectionists,
37:38 if you give a bell to the raider,
37:40 our farmers are helpless people,
37:42 neither do they have any support.
37:44 Look, we are coming on 29th,
37:45 we don't have any transport,
37:47 we don't have anything,
37:48 we are coming with our own help,
37:50 we are putting our feet on that too.
37:52 We are a country,
37:54 and Wahab is a farmer of Pakistan,
37:56 who is the guarantor of the safety of the country,
37:58 as much as he has a role in food,
38:00 but if this country has to go ahead,
38:03 then only agriculture can bring it out,
38:06 but our matter goes out.
38:08 So, the call of your protest on 29th,
38:11 outside the Punjab Assembly,
38:12 your call is still there,
38:14 you are coming to the Punjab Assembly.
38:16 Yes, it is absolutely there.
38:18 If the Prime Minister has said 4 lakh metric tons of PASCO,
38:21 then we thank him,
38:23 but in some of our divisions,
38:25 districts, districts,
38:26 there is no PASCO centre.
38:28 Okay, okay, your point has come,
38:30 that the loyalty that has been done,
38:32 this is a good step,
38:34 but it is not enough.
38:36 The farmers will get relief only when the Punjab government
38:38 will talk to them,
38:39 and the Punjab government will buy wheat on their government land.
38:44 Only then will this problem be solved.
38:46 The time for the program has come to an end.
38:48 Don't forget to give your feedback.
38:49 Take care. Goodbye.
