PML-N Senator Ishaq Dar has said he has been “begging in the Parliament” for the adoption of a Charter of Economy for the past decade.
Speaking in the Senate, he referred to PM Shehbaz Sharif’s recent call for the same and said, “And for Charter of Economy, I have been begging in this Parliament since 2013. Gave the budget for FY2013 and gave a medium-term framework of 2013-2016.”
He then recalled presenting another four consecutive frameworks, adding, “The spirit was ‘let’s come together’ and at least make an economic roadmap [and] sign a Charter of Economy.
“Let the public be witness like it was during the Charter of Democracy,” the ex-finance minister added.
