Balochistan Home Minister Sarfraz Bugti on Friday announced that the annual provincial budget session has been postponed until May 14 as more time is required to present a “comprehensive budget”. Talking to media, Bugti maintained that the delay was caused due Planning and Development Department’s lack of preparation to present the budget. He said that the name of the caretaker chief minister will come to the fore at an appropriate time. To a question, Sarfraz said the provincial budget wasn’t in any way linked with the federal government. Similarly, former provincial chief minister Dr Abdul Malik Baloch termed the postponement a failure of the government.
