It is being done, it has been said, to allow the government to introduce an amnesty scheme by presidential ordinance. It is not so much the reason as the manner which shows the contempt towards the legislative branch by the executive. The PPP has accused the government of postponing the sessions because it wished to promulgate an ordinance for the scheme. The Executive is supposed to answer to the Legislative, and this accountability is supposed to be by the former having to approach the latter for funds. The Budget session is meant to be the highlight of the parliamentary year, and is not to be treated so visually.
