KARACHI: Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) former chairman Shabber Zaidi has believed that Pakistan had gone bankrupt.
He reportedly continued that the PTI-led government’s claims that the country is achieving success and doing well are all wrong.
He expressed these views while speaking at the Hamdard University.
My speech in Hamdard University is being misreported. There was a presentation of half & hour. Only three minutes have been cherry picked. Yes I said that with this constant current account & fiscal deficit there are issues of bankruptcy & going concern but look at the solution.
