The Karachi traders have announced that the government will have to take back the withholding tax. All Karachi traders’ alliance chairman and senior vice president of all Pakistan traders Atiq Mir said that FBR is following the footsteps of Layari gang war rather than tax reforms. It is created the impression of extortion to deduct the money forcefully from the bank rather than tax. The National Tax institution has become a symbol of fear and terror from its unfair practices. They are constantly threatening them rather than to restore the confidence of taxpayers. He said that the traders have been agreed to continue the protest movement until the completely removal of the controversial tax. Atiq Mir said further that bank transaction tax has become an issue of life and death for the traders. He said that the government will eventually have to take back unfair tax.
