Prime Minister Imran Khan recalled that the country's debt reached thirty thousand billion rupees from six thousand billion rupees over the last ten years. The rising debt had a major fall out on the masses as we collect about four thousand billion rupees in taxes, of which half of the amount goes to the debt servicing.
He further said the remaining amount is not sufficient to run the affairs of the country.
The Prime Minister said Pakistan is ranked amongst the few most charitable nations but in terms of payment of taxes, we rank far below. He said this nation has the capacity to generate ten thousand billion rupees in taxes.
The Prime Minister said the country cannot be uplifted unless the people pay their taxes. He asked the people to pay taxes for a better future of their children.
