The demonstration held at Islamabad’s Blue area drew the participation of over hundreds of workers from private companies.
According to the private company’s president, the tax that the government just levied on the salaried class is too much for individuals to handle.
He emphasized that since citizens were already considering leaving the nation due to inflation, the government had to have changed the tax policy.
The demonstrators demanded that the taxes included in the recently released budget 2024–25 be removed by the administration.
The Finance Minister and other government representatives were questioned toughly by the media during the post-budget news briefing here in Islamabad last month, but they were unable to provide a response.
A Pakistani reporter criticized the fiscal policies of the Pakistani government and their effects on the common people at the post-budget briefing session.
