" جیسا کہ ملک کی کمزور معاشی حالت اور زرمبادلہ کی کمی ایک مسئلہ بنی ہوئی تھی اور اس سلسلہ میں ہماری حکومت نے IMF سے قرض/امداد کیلئے رجوع کیا تھا اور IMFنے قرض کے عوض مطالبات کی ایک طویل فہرست تھما دی تھی۔ اب جبکہ IMFسے امداد وصول کرنیکا معاہدہ ہوچکا ہے اور شرائط ابھی افشا نہ ہوئی ہیں لیکن پریس نے آئی ایم ایف کی شرائط میں زرعی انکم ٹیکس کے نفاذ کا مژدہ سنایا ہے۔ جو کہ غریب کسانوں پر میزائل بم بن کر گرا ہے۔ حالانکہ قومی اسمبلی کے پلیٹ فارم پر وزیر مملکت حنا ربانی کھر نے پالیسی بیان دیتے ہوئے زرعی انکم ٹیکس کے نفاذ کی تردید کی ہے۔ مگر اسکے باوجود یہ ایوان ان خدشات پر اپنا ردعمل دینا ضروری سمجھتا ہے۔ کسانوں، زمینداروں پر پہلے ہی بالواسطہ اور بلاواسطہ ٹیکسوں کی بھرمار ہے۔ جس میں صوبائی انکم ٹیکس، سیلز ٹیکس، آبیانہ ٹیکس، لوکل ریٹ ٹیکس، مالیہ ٹیکس شامل ہیں۔ لہذا یہ ایوان سفارش کرتا ہے کہ وفاقی یا صوبائی حکومتیں مزید کسی بھی قسم کے زرعی ٹیکس کا نفاذ نہ کرے کیونکہ ہمارے کسانوں کی معاشی حالت اسکی متحمل نہیں ہو سکتی اور پھر کھیت بھی ویران ہو جائیں گے۔"
