Shaukat Tarin gives credit to Imran Khan
Former finance minister Shaukat Tarin said that FBR achieved the revenue target due to the economic progress and the policies adopted by the Imran Khan government.
He maintained that the government should not abandon the tax policies of the previous government. Tarin was of the view that the government should not impose additional taxes on the existing taxpayers.
Productive sectors of the economy should not be slapped with heavy taxes, he added.
