Pakistan is reeling under a huge economic crisis. Prices of essential commodities like milk, flour, rice and cooking oil have skyrocketed and people are desperately looking for someone to bail them out from the financial crisis. A video posted by Pakistani vlogger Sana Amjad relating to the economic crisis in the country has gone viral.
One being asked why the slogan 'Pakistan se zinda bhago chahe India chale jaao" was being raised on the streets, a Pakistani man responded by criticising the Shehbaz Sharif-led government over the economic crisis and said the situation would have been better if Modi had been the prime minister of the country.
"I wish I was not born in cash-strapped Pakistan…I wish Pakistan was not separated from India. We would then be purchasing tomatoes at PKR 20 per kg, chicken for PKR 150 per kg, and petrol at PKR 50 per litre. I pray to Allah to give us Modi." the man can be heard saying in the video.
"It is unfortunate that we got an Islamist nation but we could not establish Islam here," he added.
Heaping more praises on Prime Minister Narendra Modi the man said, "Modi is much better than us, his people respect and follow him so much. If we had Narendra Modi, we wouldn't need Nawaz Sharif or Benazir or Imran, not even (late former military ruler) General (Parvez) Musharraf. All we want is Prime Minister Modi, as only he can deal with all mischievous elements in the country. India is currently the fifth-biggest economy in the world while we are nowhere."
"I am ready to live under Modi's rule. Modi is a great man, he is not a bad human being," he further said.
