Opposition declares mini-budget a threat to country's autonomy

ISLAMABAD (92 News) – The opposition in the National Assembly declared the mini-budget a threat to the autonomy of the country.

Giving the policy statement on the floor of the House, PML-N leader Khawaja Asif said that the purpose of the Finance Amendment Bill is to surrender to the economic autonomy and nuclear capability.

"A viceroy in the form of a governor is present in the State Bank of Pakistan," he added.
