ISLAMABAD: The federal cabinet has extended the service tenure of the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) chairman Javed Ghani on Tuesday.
As per details, Javed Ghani was appointed as the chairman of the board succeeding Nausheen Javed Amjad on 4 July 2020.
According to a notification stated that former FBR chief Nausheen Amjad had been transferred and posted as Secretary National Heritage and Culture Division with immediate effect.
Earlier in April, Nausheen Javed was appointed as FBR chief after former chief Shabbar Zaidi had gone on leave for an indefinite period citing health issues.
After the extension, Javed Ghani will serve as FBR chairman for three more months. Moreover, the federal cabinet approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the FBI, US and the NAB.
The matter of gas load-shedding also came under discussion during today’s meeting. Special Assistant to Prime Minister (SAPM) on Petroleum, Babar Nadeem briefed the meeting about the latest situation.
Earlier this month, Federal interior minister Sheikh Rasheed had said that SAPM Nadeem Babar had furnished his clarification on petroleum products, but many cabinet members expressed anger over him in the last meeting of the federal cabinet.
