Finance Minister Dar briefs President Alvi on country’s economic situation

The meeting came a day after PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry revealed that “informal communications” between his party and federal government, pertaining to the snap elections, had begun.

It is pertinent to mention that last week PTI chief Imran Khan gave the federal government an ultimatum to either “sit and talk and give a date for the general elections” or “we will dissolve the assemblies”.

During the meeting today at Aiwan-i-Sadr, the president — whose political roots are in the PTI — and the finance minister discussed various matters concerning the economy, finance, and the rehabilitation of flood affectees.

According to the press release, Dar briefed the president about steps taken by the incumbent government to provide relief to the most vulnerable segments of society, especially those who were underprivileged or affected by this year’s destructive floods.
