KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah has said the national economy’s growth shown by the federal government is merely an eyewash.
Had the economy really shown the growth, as what is being claimed, the federal government would not have revised its allocations to the provinces, he said while addressing a crowded press conference here at the CM House on Monday.
“We are facing a shortfall of Rs82 billion in federal transfers, therefore, our entire budgetary commitments have been affected badly.” Shah said the majority of taxes were collected by the federal government and then it transferred the share to the provincial governments as per the agreed formula.
