Bailout package with IMF has been agreed but the parliament has no knowledge of the program.

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) leader and Senator Sherry Rehman on Wednesday said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) tsunami has become a tsunami of debts.

Speaking at the meeting of Senate Standing Committee on Finance, she said that the country’s economy has devastated, adding that Finance Minister Asad Umar is seeking loans from Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Rehman went on to say that bailout package with IMF has been agreed but the parliament has no knowledge of the program.

“The government thinks that the country can be run through president system,” she said and added it will have negative impact. “PPP will resist govt’s move to nudge the country towards a presidential system,” she said.
