FBR Chairman Rashid Langrial has defended the purchase of over 1,000 vehicles worth Rs. 6 billion, stating that they are crucial for young field officers handling tasks like sales tax inspections. He emphasized that the FBR had already clarified this acquisition to the Senate Standing Committee on Finance and remains confident in achieving tax collection targets. However, the decision has faced criticism, with the Senate Finance Committee questioning the transparency of the process. Concerns have been raised over limited competition in the procurement, sparking fears of potential misuse of public funds.
