The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly yesterday began the exercise to pass the budget for financial year 2014-15 after a four days long discussion.
The Rs9.4 billion demands for grant for seven departments were approved during the session chaired by Speaker Asad Qaisar.
However, the opposition parties rejected the government’s demands for grants for the administration, finance and planning and development departments over their ‘inefficiency, delaying tactics in resolving public problems, nepotism and delay in release of funds.’
Despite criticism of the opposition, the ruling parties managed to get demands for grant for the administration, finance and planning and development departments approved by majority vote.
