Pakistan would've suffered economic collapse had PTI govt continued: Shabbar Zaidi
No doubt. But will whoever is running the current government — or the next— do any better?

-led regime completed its tenure.

The PTI's tenure was cut short in April 2022, when the government was ousted after Khan was removed as the prime minister through a no-confidence motion, paving the way for Shehbaz Sharif and allies to come into power.

One of the primary reasons behind ousting the Khan-led government was economic mismanagement and the increasing burden of inflation on the masses, as claimed by the incumbent rulers, who were then in the opposition.

"Had this [PTI] government continued, the party would not have even secured 5% votes as the country would have economically collapsed," former Federal Bureau of Revenue (FBR) chairman Shabbar Zaidi told Geo News' Shahzeb Khanzada on Friday.

The top tax collection body's ex-boss said he had advised Khan to rectify his government's shortcomings and "settle things, but he was not in the mood of listening [to anyone]".

Although Zaidi — whose stint as the federal tax collection authority's chief lasted from 2019 to 2020 — revealed that when he pointed out the economic crises Pakistain was headed towards during the PTI's tenure, Khan had removed Asad Umar as the finance minister.
