Reforms in tax collection system urged

Published Updated

Speakers at a youth seminar on the eve of International Day for Eradication of Poverty on Friday urged the government to bring reforms in tax collection policies and provide relief to lower class. The seminar was jointly organised by Islamabad Crescent Lions Club, Saba Aslam Education and Welfare Trust and Human Capital Management Institute.
They said that current polices about the tax collection are not sufficient because the high class is exempted and majority avoids to pay the tax. Former senator Akram Zaki said that there is no lack of potential but the lack of management and all the problems rise after the injustice in the society.
He said that unfortunately from the last 500 year any Muslim country not work for the human development. Akram Zaki said that it is the responsibility of the state to provide free education, health and employment to the youth. He said that due to the modern technology the ratio of unemployment is increasing day by day in the developed countries of the globe.
Presently the people of west stood up against the capitalism because they are not satisfied with this system. Former Chairman Federal Bureau of Revenue Abdullah Yousif urged that women should come forward for the socio-economic development of the country. He said that due to the mismanagement of the government during the last three year the scope of foreign loans has increased.
Abdullah said that it is the need of the hour for the government to reduce its unnecessary expensive and focus on the own resources. There is no lack of resources but the government is not showing its interest for the growth and development of resources.
