KARACHI:
Contentions between the opposition and treasury benches on budget expenditures for the current fiscal year continued on Thursday as the Sindh Assembly prepared to wind up debate on the issue today (Friday).
For the opposition lawmakers, the budget has been merely a jugglery of figures. But the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party lawmakers insist that it was an exemplary budget under which record development took place in almost all sectors of government.
The former continued to grill provincial ministers on the performance of their respective departments. The education and irrigation departments and the Covid-19 expenditures came under scrutiny in the house.
