Punjab Local Government Minister Ibrahim Hasan Murad has said that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) initially admitted that it would cover all the expenses.
In a statement, Ibrahim Hasan Murad said that we have asked the PCB to take up the direct costs as there is a period of inflation.
He said that the budgets of the departments have already lapsed, the Punjab government is working frugally.
The Punjab Local Government Minister added that the PCB initially admitted that it would cover all these expenses.
He said that when the PCB had a meeting with the franchises, they have decided that they will not do this take-up.
Ibrahim Hasan Murad also said that we told PCB that the people of Punjab are very interested in cricket.
He said that the PCB has been asked to lend a hand in difficult times considering the interest of the people of Punjab, the decision has to be taken by the PCB now.
Local Government Minister Punjab said that the Punjab government is spending around 60 to 70 crore rupees, we have not been contacted by the federal government.
He said that he clearly told the PCB that there are expenses of 90 crores, 250 million should be given by you, it is not the issue of the Punjab government and the PCB, it is the issue of the people of Punjab and the country.
Ibrahim Hasan Murad said that we want to make PSL a successful event, PCB should show some flexibility.
