National Assembly passes federal budget on Friday
The federal government has revised the Rs80 per litre petroleum development levy to Rs70/ltr after days of budget debate sessions in the National Assembly and Senate recommendations.
It was part of the Finance Bill, which the National Assembly passed amid concerns from the opposition.
