Defense budget? It's expected to hit $ 16 billion by 2018-2019, another jump to $ 20 billion by 2022 and by 2025, they expect Pakistan to be the top 15th economy with a defense budget of $ 25-30 billion. Of course, these estimated are subjected to continuous growth of the economy, political stability and expected return from all economic related activity.

But I can easily see a $ 16-20 billion budget in the next four years (on par or slightly above Turkey's defense budget). Pakistan's current budget for defense is running around $ 10 billion and due to various operations going on against terrorists in FATA, a couple of billions are allocated additionally. So already direct and indirect budget is $ 10-13 billion. Now add growth of $ 4-5 billion with 4-6% GDP growth over the next 3 years, a $ 3-4 billion increase isn't that big.

No I meant budget like actual budget sir ?

I wouldn't know that. It will change rapidly year by year per the growth. But I'd estimated double it within the next 5 years due to projected economic growth.

We need good quality new cars however first the Govt needs to ban all old cars which have nothing from safety point of view. Specially Mehran.

Another problems is the Traffic Jams which are increasing day by day and I dont see an project in my city related to solving these problems as our Provincial Govt is always sleeping and eating and making bank balances
