Pakistan Times National News Desk

QUETTA: Balochistan Finance Minister Syed Ahsan Shah has said the province will need Rs. 20 billion to 25 billion from the centre for preparation of the provincial budget.

The provincial finance minister said the province will announce deficit budget for fiscal year 2006-07.

President Gen. Pervez Musharraf and Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz have been informed about the financial facts of the province, he said.

Balochistan has received increased share in the National Finance Commission Award but provincial share from the Gas Development Surcharge (GDS) is the key issue, the minister said. Balochistan should be given more share from GDS, he added.●
