ISLAMABAD:Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbassi has rejected criticism on recently announced tax reforms package saying it is a landmark initiative to shift the burden of taxes from the poor lot to the affluent one.
He was addressing a ceremony in connection with the inauguration of two mega roads projects including Yakmach-Kharan and Khuzdar-Shahdad Kot roads in Kharan this afternoon.
The Prime Minister said it is the first time in the country's history that the income tax has been cut by more than half to encourage the people to become part of the tax net. He said the initiative will help generate sufficient resources in order to end reliance on others. APP/AFP
