Govt to form commission to fix responsibility for economic crisis

The federal government plans to form a parliamentary commission to identify people who are responsible for Pakistan’s current economic crisis.

Quoting sources, a private TV channel reported that Prime Minister Imran Khan has already issued instructions to officials concerned to consult the parliament for establishing the commission.

The decision was initially approved by the federal cabinet in its meeting held on October 11.

The commission will investigate the causes of the economic crisis and identify those responsible behind it in a month’s time, sources said.

Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry confirmed that he has submitted a resolution in the National Assembly for the constitution of a parliamentary commission to identify those responsible for the current fragile financial situation of Pakistan and submit its report in one month.
