Islamabad: World Bank on Wednesday delayed the approval of two loans worth $ 1.1 billion for Pakistan until the next fiscal year. The Bank had earlier earmarked $ 450 million for a reliable economy and $ 600 million in energy debt and tariffs. However, the approval has been pending since June. On the other hand, the lender has also opposed imposing a “flood levy” on imports.
