Raja Asif Iqbal sought permission from the Director-General of the Civil Aviation Authority to bring a donkey-cart into the CAA parking lot. He said that due to inflation, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has closed the transport facility. The rising prices of petrol have made it impossible to use private transport. Therefore it is a humble request that I will be permitted to bring my donkey cart to the airport.

However, CAA (Civil Aviation Authority, CAA) spokesperson Saifullah Khan said that fuel allowance is given to every member of the staff. Pick and drop service is provided to the employees. Metro bus service is also available for the staff at the airport. This application is nothing more than a publicity stunt. At the same time, the Finance Minister said that he cannot allow the country to go bankrupt. The government was suffering a lot due to the rise in international prices.
