Shah said. He further alleged that from tax recovery to everything Center is not doing it's job rightfully but losses are faced by the provinces. Center has so far changed four finance ministers and now it is feared that if the present finance minister fails then the centre may demand Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP's) Naveed Qamar to fill in the post.


Sindh CM further said that we have never heard of gas shortage in hot weather but due to incompetence of the Center, gas crisis has emerged in the month of June.
