Hukoomat ke paas 49 lakh non-filers ka mukammal data hai: Aurangzeb
Wazir-e-Khazana Muhammad Aurangzeb ne kaha hai ke 4.9 million non-filers ko tax net mein la kar tax net ko wasee karne ki hukoomati koshishon ke tehat Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) mein islaahat mutarif karai ja rahi hain, Wazir-e-Azam Shehbaz Sharif is silsile mein haftawaar ijlaas kar rahe hain.
Wazir-e-Khazana ne itwaar ko Islamabad mein aik press conference se khitab karte hue kaha ke tax afsaran non-filers ko unki haraasani ko khatam karne ke liye seedha notice jari nahi kar sakenge.
Non-filers ko centralized mechanism ke zariye notice jari kiye jaenge, unhon ne mazeed kaha ke field formations ko iske mutabiq tax jama karne ka ikhtiyar diya jaega.
Unhon ne is baat par bhi zor diya ke 4.9 million non-filers hain, jin ke tarz-e-zindagi ka mukammal data hukoomat ke paas mojood hai.
Wazir-e-Khazana ne hukoomat ke tax islaahaat ke agenda ki himayat karne par chaaron soobon ke wuzara-e-ala ka shukriya ada kiya, umeed zahir ki ke wo zarayi shoba ko tax ke nizaam mein shamil karne ke liye tax qanoon saazi karenge.
Unhon ne kaha ke tax nizaam mein tax na dene wale aur kam tax dene wale tabqay ko shamil kiye baghair, hukoomat is yakeen aur aasani ko hasil nahi kar sakti jo muashi istehkam ke liye zaroori hai.
Karobari baradari ko sahulat ke hawale se Aurangzeb ne kaha ke 1 July se ab tak 68 billion rupees ke claims wapas kiye ja chuke hain.
Wazir-e-Khazana ne energy ke shoba mein fori dancha-e-islaahaat ki zaroorat par bhi zor diya taake Independent Power Producers (IPPs), bijli ke mehengay billon aur qoumi khazana aur consumers par bojh parhne wali deegar be-zaabtigiyon se mutaliq masail ko hal kiya ja sake.
Wazir ne Islamabad mein aik press conference ke douran kaha, “Humein sakhti halon ki taraf barhney ki zaroorat hai. Humne fori hal faraham kiya hai, lekin humein dancha-e-islaahaat ke sath bhi amal karna chahiye.”
Unke tabssare consumers ke mahinay ke bijli ke billon ke zariye IPPs ko ki jane wali salahiyat ki adaigi par shore machane ke darmiyan aaye hain, jo pehle hi taxon aur mulki tareekh mein sab se zyada tariff ke bojh tale dabay hue hain.
Siyasi rehnumaon, civil society aur aam logon ne bijli ke nirkhon mein izafa par hukoomat ko tanqeed ka nishana banaya hai aur hukam se mutalba kiya hai ke wo IPPs ke sath apne muahiday par nazar sani karein.
Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) bhi sadkon par nikal ayi hai, Rawalpindi mein IPPs ko ki jane wali adaigi aur “bijli ke mehnge billon” ke khilaf dharna de rahi hai.
Nagdi ki kami ka shikar consumers aise waqt mein bijli ke asman chhote hue bill ada karne par majboor ho rahe hain jab headline inflation ki shara 12.6% (June 2024) tak pohanch gayi hai.
Aurangzeb ne kaha, “Hum jazbati faislay kar sakte hain aur jazbati rad-e-amal ka izhar kar sakte hain, lekin humein muqami aur ghair mulki sarmaya kari ko bhi raaghib karne ki zaroorat hai. Hum IPPs ke sath apne muahidoon ki saleemiyat ko mukammal tor par nazar andaz nahi kar sakte,” Aurangzeb ne kaha.
Wazir-e-Khazana ne is baat par zor diya ke qaleel muddat aur ghutnay tekne walay rad-e-amal se mulk ki maeeshat ke mukhtalif shehron mein jame’ dancha-e-tabdeeli nahi aaye gi.
Hukoomat ki janib se sanitary package mutarif karane, cross subsidy khatam karne aur 200 units tak istemal karne walay consumers ke liye subsidy fraham karne jaise iqdamat karne ke bawajood mazeed kuch karne ki zaroorat hai.
Unhon ne kaha ke hukoomat muashray ke kam amdani walay tabqe par bojh na dalne ki har mumkin koshish kar rahi hai aur zaraat ko tax nizaam mein shamil karne ke mansoobon ka zikr kiya, tamam soobon ke wuzara-e-ala zarai tax qanoon saazi ke zimmedar hain.
