Punjab Governor Latif Khosa has said that taxation is important for economic uplift, infrastructures development, and nation building and there is a need to broaden the tax net in the country. He was talking to a twenty-three member delegation of Lahore Tax Bar Association led by its President Iftikhar Shabbir Syed which called on him at Governor House on Thursday.
Khosa said tax evasion had to be reduced to achieve the revenue targets set for 2011-12 and TBA should play their role honestly. The delegation apprised the governor about their problems, who assured them that TBA would also be taken on board to improve laws and regulations and for making FBR a people-friendly organisation.
