flag Pakistan's national highway authority lost over PKR 2 trillion, needs constant bailouts, and faces rising debt despite toll increases.

flag Pakistan's national highway authority has become the federal government's most expensive public sector loss-maker, with cumulative losses exceeding PKR 2 trillion and annual deficits near PKR 300 billion, despite doubling toll revenues. flag Debt has reached PKR 3.1 trillion, growing by about PKR 300 billion yearly, with interest payments consuming nearly PKR 100 billion annually. flag The agency relies on repeated government bailouts—over PKR 115 billion in the past year—while expenses outpace income due to high finance costs, depreciation, and debt servicing. flag Assets stagnate and equity declines, prompting officials to call for reforms including new funding, expanded outsourcing, and revised loan terms to fix the unsustainable model.
