Published 2024-07-18
पिछले कुछ सालों से पाकिस्तान की अर्थव्यवस्था उथल-पुथल भरे दौर से गुज़र रही है और। बढ़ती महंगाई और ऊर्जा की बढ़ती कीमतों ने आम आदमी के जीवन स्तर को काफ़ी प्रभावित किया है। इसके पीछे क्या वज़ह है? पाकिस्तान इन आर्थिक चुनौतियों से निपटने के लिए ज़रूरी सुधारों को लागू क्यों नहीं कर पा रहा है? इस हफ़्ते, हम बात करेंगे उज़ैर यूनुस से, जो अपने पॉडकास्ट पाकिस्तोनॉमी पर पाकिस्तान की अर्थव्यवस्था के कई पहलुओं के बारे में लिखते और चर्चा करते रहे हैं।

Pakistan's economy is going through turbulent times in the past few years with inflation reaching above 35% in May 2023.

  • संवाद सम्मान और एक दूसरे को समझने का प्रयास ये वो रास्ते है जो किसी भी बदतर हालत को बदलकर खूबसूरत बना देते है फिर प्रेम का जन्म होता है भाईचारे और एकता का खैर नाम प्यारा है चैनल का ❤💐 पुलिया

    Prior to 2014 every westerner want 3 reform in india to be to middle income economy ie. Land, labour & agri reform.. + infra was asked to be improved Infra modi has done remarkable & future trajectory is also good Land was coldly sidelined after fiasco of suit boot ki sarkar.. Agri was stooped by 'security & politics' well organised but small caste group farmer which was want to subdue delhi like teerorist did in 80s.. Labour was put forward but nothing is known about it as laal slaam would do grand slam to modi like they did with Agri protest..
