LAHORE - The Punjab government, under the visionary leadership of Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar, is going to present a provincial budget based on tax reliefs.

This was claimed by Punjab government spokesperson Musarrat Jamshed Cheema in a statement here on Sunday. She said that the government was going to present a balanced budget, adding: “No new tax has been imposed.” She said that previous governments brought budgets only for their own benefits or the benefits of their friends.

Musarrat Jamshed challenged the opposition to have a debate with her on the facts and figures about the forthcoming budget at any platform, adding that the government gave no importance to the protests and rallies of the opposition parties. “The true face of the opposition has been exposed before the public.”

She said that people had boycotted the opposition’s gathering in past which proved that people were not supporting their narrative. “The entire nation condemned the attitude and behaviour of the opposition which they adopted in the National Assembly session,” she added.
