Hafiz Naeem wants Army Chief and bureaucrats to give up their privileges
Central Ameer of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman has demanded that bureaucrats and the Army Chief give up their extra privileges as the country grapples with exorbitant taxes.
Addressing a media group dinner in Lahore, Hafiz Naeem said that the country is facing a severe and immediate “brain drain.” The Army Chief should announce the withdrawal of extra privileges, and the country’s bureaucracy should also withdraw their privileges.
He lamented the country’s socioeconomic problems, saying, “People are leaving Pakistan, and the education system is getting worse.”
Furthermore, he stated, “Installing solar panels is not the solution to the problem because electricity tariffs should be reduced.”
