Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) MNA Mirza Ikhtiar Baig Monday said his party will oppose the proposed Tax Amendment Bill, which includes stringent conditions for non-filers.
In a statement, Mirza Ikhtiar Baig revealed that the amendment includes a proposal to freeze the bank accounts of non-filers and prevent them from transferring immovable property.
He also mentioned that non-filers could have their business premises confiscated under the new provisions.
Baig said that the PPP would oppose such laws, calling them excessively harsh.
He suggested that the bill be discussed in the Finance and Revenue Committees of the National Assembly.
