Taking to Instagram, the actress questioned the logic behind the sudden price hike, especially amid reports of limited fuel reserves in the country.
“When the government says petrol and diesel reserves are only for a few days, how does increasing the price suddenly solve the problem?” she wrote.
Questions Over Fuel Policy
Maya Ali further criticised the policy, asking whether raising prices would actually increase fuel supply.
“If there is not enough petrol, will higher prices suddenly increase the supply too? How does that work?” she asked.
Concern for Public Hardship
The actress also expressed concern for ordinary citizens struggling with rising inflation.
She noted that many people in Pakistan are already dealing with high living costs and daily expenses, adding that during the holy month of Ramadan, citizens expect relief rather than additional financial pressure.
