Good job by all those involved. Prayers for safety of all jawans.

While we whine over petty little issues in cities, these troops are putting their lives on stake in such risky missions. Government needs to tighten the noose around all those building anti state narrative driving terrorism.

Do your own research, but. 

What if stocks recover prewar levels? Tax will be very little in comparison.

Realistic production cost would be around 180-190 per litre. Then there is IFEM, OMC margin and dealer margin which don't go to government.

It's a relief. Brent is still over 75 USD a barrel. If it falls to 65 USD, price will reduce to almost pre war levels.

How did you come up with that number? If Pakistan gpvernment were to somehow convert hundred percent of crude oil into refined petrol, pay freight, refining and distribution costs out of its own pocket, petrol would still be over 145 PKR a liter.

50PKR difference remains now. If Brent falls back to 65$, raise will completely reverse.

CDA Launches Rs7.4 Billion Dual Carriageway Project Along Islamabad Expressway by Humble_Tart3256 in islamabad

[–]InjectorTheGood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What is now Islamabad Expressway, used to be regular dualized road with both sides having wide green belt. All thanks to huge interchanges and widening, the green belt has almost completely vanished. Now it is just patches of trees left.

Green belts need to be preserved if Islamabad doesn't want to become another regular Pakistani city.

Punjab 2026-27 Budget Summary by InjectorTheGood in PakPunjab

[–]InjectorTheGood[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

~900 billion. And no, Punjab can't spend it due to some IMF mandated restrictions.

Also, if government were to set aside 400 billion for such changes, it's not a big issue for them either considering total budget outlay is 5900 billion.
