Azam Nazeer Tarar further stated that there has been a notable reduction in the perks and facilities of federal ministers, with little room left for additional benefits under the current policy. He mentioned that discussions could be held if anyone objects to the 200-liter monthly petrol quota.
The federal minister highlighted that the government is taking considerable steps to better utilize national resources and eliminate unnecessary expenditures. Austerity measures are being implemented across various ministries and government departments.
Azam Nazeer Tarar noted that reducing government expenses will not only alleviate the burden on the national treasury but also aid in establishing fiscal discipline.
