PESHAWAR: Opposition in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly on Monday rejected the province’s Rs109 billion supplementary budget for the outgoing financial year unjustified and an additional burden on the ‘impoverished’ province and insisted that the presentation of such a large supplementary budget showed the failure of the government and poor planning of its departments.
The house, which met with Speaker Mushtaq Ahmad Ghani in the chair, began debate on the 2020-21 supplementary budget.
