ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President and leader of the opposition in National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif said that they will give a tough time to the government in the Parliament.

Talking to journalists following the National Assembly budget session in Islamabad, Shehbaz Sharif said that people were dying from starvation in the country but surprisingly the government claimed that the economy was improving.

Mean while rejecting the federal government’s budget Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that they would thwart the budget in Parliament through the power of vote.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that the opposition parties, despite differences, will jointly resist the budget in the Parliament.

Lambasting the finance minister, the PPP chairman said that the people were facing record-high inflation and unemployment but it seemed that the minister was talking about the economy and budget of any other country.

Earlier today, amidst ruckus by the opposition, Finance Minister Shaukat Tarin had announced the federal budget 2021-22 in the National Assembly.
