Is the IMF Running Pakistan? | Middle Class Crushed, Elite Rewarded | Budget 2026-27

Описание: Are IMF-driven policies wiping out Pakistan's middle class? In this episode of Raftar Now featuring tax expert Anwar Kashif Mumtaz, we ask: why does the salaried professional always bear the brunt of the government's "accountant's budget" while the real estate sector enjoys massive tax relief? Are your hard-earned taxes actually funding national growth, or are they simply enabling elite capture? With crippling inflation, why is there absolutely zero relief for individuals earning 1-2 lakh rupees a month? Furthermore, how can the government justify spending 4.8 crore on PM House decorations while simultaneously advising the nation to "share one roti"? What is the real agenda behind protecting undocumented wealth, and how exactly does Dubai's property market continue to influence our local tax policies? If you are a taxpayer trying to survive this economic crisis, can you really afford to miss this essential breakdown?
