November 04, 2024 (MLN): The government has refused claims made by certain electronic media channels regarding the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) supposed rejection of the Federal Board of Revenue's (FBR) request for a revision of tax targets.

"It's regretted to note that some electronic media channels have aired an absolutely baseless and false story stating that IMF has rejected FBR's request for revision of targets," says a press release.

"It is outrightly denied that any such meeting has taken place with the IMF on this subject. Nor this subject has ever been on the agenda of any of the meetings, virtual or otherwise, with the IMF."

Therefore, it said FBR not only rejects this news but also advises national media to refrain from such fake stories which may affect our national interests adversely.
