The budget was originally scheduled for June 2, but the government has decided to delay it due to ongoing negotiations with the IMF and the upcoming Eidul al-Adha holidays, which are expected to coincide with that timeframe.
Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has stated that its Executive Board approved funding for
the country after it “met all the targets” under the Extended Fund Facility (EFF) programme.
Speaking to reporters on Thursday, the International Monetary Fund’s spokesperson, Julie Kozack, clarified that the Fund’s disbursements are strictly allocated to Pakistan’s central bank (State Bank of Pakistan) reserves and are subject to robust safeguards and conditionalities.
“It is part of a standard procedure under programmes that our Executive Board conducts periodic reviews of lending programs to assess their progress. And they particularly look at whether the programme is on track, whether the conditions under the programme have been met, and whether any policy changes are needed to bring the programme back on track.
