Lahore: Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) leader Faisal Mir has accused the government of withholding crucial details on the alleged rent for CM Punjab’s aircraft. He called for the government to reveal the bank name, account details, and receipt of the Rs17.5 million deposit. PPP workers participated in a ceremony to celebrate PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s birthday.
Mir harshly criticized the Punjab government's policies, urging the government to disclose verifiable records of the aircraft rental payment or face legal consequences.

Mir also proposed an additional tax of Rs50,000 on vehicles over 1500cc to shift the burden onto the wealthy.
