Islamabad: The International Monetary Fund (IMF) refused to relax its conditions set for Pakistan to complete the ninth review of the $7 billion loan program. Earlier this month, Finance Minister Ishaq Dar held a meeting with the IMF officials on the sidelines of the Geneva moot. The IMF has asked Pakistan to impose new taxes to increase its revenue. However, the government is reluctant to put extra burden on inflation-bitten people.
