  • January 2016 NEWS COVERAGE PERIOD JANUARY 25TH to JANUARY 31ST, 2016 PROTESTERS DEMAND PROPER SHARE for GB in CPEC Dawn, January 25Th, 2016
    January 2016 NEWS COVERAGE PERIOD JANUARY 25TH TO JANUARY 31ST, 2016 PROTESTERS DEMAND PROPER SHARE FOR GB IN CPEC Dawn, January 25th, 2016 ISLAMABAD: A large number of people belonging to Gilgit-Baltistan, including members of the area’s legislative assembly, on Sunday held a protest demonstration in front of National Press Club demanding proper share in China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). They also demanded that GB should be declared the fifth province of Pakistan so that the people of the backward area could get their basic rights. The protest was organised by the Youth of Gilgit-Baltistan, a non-political platform representing the youth of the area. Speaking on the occasion, member of the legislative assembly, Kacho Imtiaz, said people of GB could not get their basic rights even after 68 years. “We had passed a resolution in the legislative assembly that there should be three hubs of CPEC in GB but only one station is being given to us for loading and unloading of goods. Moreover, no industrial zone is being set up in GB,” he complained. Another MLA, Haji Rizwan, said basic rights should be ensured for the people of GB. “Moreover, the government of PML-N should implement the National Action Plan (NAP) in its letter and spirit and take action against terrorists instead of using the law for its own benefits,” he said. The protesters also demanded that Gilgit-Baltistan should get representation in the National Assembly, Senate and the National Finance Commission. Talking to Dawn, chairman of the GB Youth’s coordination committee, Hasnain Kazmi, said the government should give basic rights to the people of GB.

  • Parliamentarians Tax Directory
    PARLIAMENTARIANS TAX DIRECTORY FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 (Published on 22nd February 2019) FOREWORD Every country levies taxes to raise revenues which are essential for the running of affairs of a state and provision of public services. Development of a progressive taxation system is an essential tool to reduce social inequalities in a society and bridge the gap between the rich and the poor. The countries exhibiting due diligence in collection of taxes from the affluent segments of the society through progressive taxation and expending them judiciously for the welfare of the poor are rated high on transparency and good governance index. Efficient, fair and sustainable tax systems are critical for institution building and promoting democracy and improved economic governance. The need for transparency and accountability in a vibrant democracy imposes extra responsibility on public representatives for disclosure of their assets and the sources of their income. With these aims and objectives, Federal Board of Revenue published, its first Tax Directory of Parliamentarians in tax year 2013. However, this time, in line with the incumbent government’s reform agenda, The Directory embodies the policy of transparency and accountability through access to information. The publication of the Parliamentarians’ Tax Directory is an integral step towards ensuring transparency and informing voters about the tax- paying status of their elected representatives. Tax Directory of the honourable Parliamentarians for the tax year 2017 is now published. The directory contains tax details of members of the Senate of Pakistan and Members of the National as well as Provincial Assemblies. I would like to appreciate the efforts of the Federal Board of Revenue for compiling and publishing this tax directory.
