The Balochistan Assembly swiftly approved a Rs119 billion supplementary budget on Friday, despite a walkout by opposition members protesting the lack of discussion. The budget allocates funds for various development projects and revised expenditures for the current fiscal year. Opposition parties, including the Pashtunkhwa Milli Awami Party (PMP) and the Balochistan National Party (BNP), criticized the government for bypassing standard budgetary procedures and denying them the opportunity to debate the financial proposals. They staged a walkout, deeming the process undemocratic and expressing concerns over transparency. Finance Minister Ghazain Marri defended the move, citing urgent financial needs and the necessity for timely approval. The supplementary budget’s passage allows the provincial government to address pressing financial requirements and continue ongoing development initiatives. The opposition has vowed to continue its protest against what they perceive as a disregard for parliamentary norms.
