In spite of being a farming nation, out of its 803,940 sq km of aggregate region, around 60% is viewed as unsatisfactory for horticultural exercises or ranger service. This gigantic zone comprises of mountains, deserts and urban settlements. Out of aggregate cultivable region just 75% is rich because of absence of rain in many ranges. |
Pakistan's 70% of the cultivated range is in Punjab, trailed by the Sindh that involves 20%, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa contributes around just 10% and Balochistan has just 1% of the cultivated land. |
Because of absence of precipitation cultivating to a great extent relies on upon water system. The Government of Pakistan has been finding a way to enhance water supply for the harvests. Today Pakistan has one of the world's biggest water system systems. Because of various activities at various zones of the nation, developed region has expanded to more than 33% since freedom and now 80% of the cultivating is finished with the assistance of concentrated water system. |
3.1 Tobacco: |
It is an agrarian item which is prepared from leaves in the family Nicotiana. It is utilized as a natural pesticide, expended as a type of nicotine tartrate and is likewise utilized as a part of a few prescriptions. It is essentially devoured as a recreational medication in the majority of the nations. It is a significant money trim for nations like China, Cube and United States of America. Rates of tobacco smoking is in the declining stage in the created nations however keep on rising in the creating nations. |
J. Basic. Appl. Sci. Res., 7(4)1-17, 2017 |
It is developed simply like whatever other product. Seeds are planted in hot beds or chilly casings to keep them from |
creepy crawlies and transplanted in the fields a short time later. It is a yearly yield gathered by hand or mechanically. It is then put away to cure permitting oxidation and carotenoids corruption. This permits the harvest to go up against the smoothness of the smoke. It is then pressed by structures it is devoured which is biting, smoking, sniffing and so on. |
Tobacco is a trade trims developing out couple of zones of Pakistan. Its partake in the remote trade of Pakistan is of |
570.2 million rupees that makes 0.4% partake in the aggregate fares of the nation. Region Khyber Pakhtunkwa is the fundamental tobacco developing range where two sorts of tobacco are developed, i.e. Grain and Virginia. Pakistan is satisfying the nearby request of tobacco and is likewise sending out great measure of tobacco procuring a decent impart of benefits to its fare. |
3.2 Tobacco cultivation: |
Roughly 100,000 tons of tobacco is developed every year on more than 50,000 hectares of land. There are around 50 cigarette fabricating organizations enlisted in Pakistan and more than 500,000 outlets offer tobacco items at retail level in Pakistan. |
Tobacco is a vital money trim for some nations around the globe. Despite the fact that Pakistan's partake in aggregate world creation is moderately low (1.45%), thorough research has prompted to significant change in both amount and nature of deliver. |
Nourishment and Agriculture Organization (FAO) assessed about 3.9 million hectares of land all through the world were under tobacco development amid the year 2009. Worldwide generation of the product surpassed 7.1 million tons in meantime. Tobacco generation of the world is to a great extent ruled by China, Brazil, India and the United States. |
Pakistan is home to various assortments of tobacco specifically Flu Cured Virginia, Light Air Cured, Light Sun Cured, Dark Air Cured, Semi Oriental and Dark Sun Cured. FAO figures expressed that tobacco was developed about 50,000 hectares in the year 2009. Pakistan's total tobacco generation amid that year was about 105,000 tons. |
Tobacco is developed in the tropical and calm locales. The temperature requires extending from 50 degree F to 80 degree F. Icy temperature is exceptionally hazardous for this product. Then again development of tobacco having 20 to 30 inches precipitation every year i.e. Sub-tropical zones are appropriate. Over the top precipitation and staging water in underlying foundations of plants is harmful for yields. Rain or water provided after interims ought to be given. Ripe soil is needed for the best possible development of tobacco product. After the development the richness of land abatements so the normal and simulated composts are utilized. |
The development zones of Pakistan can be separated into three sorts. |
Areas having abundant production: Districts Peshawas and Mardan of NWFP province are at top of the list of tobacco producing areas and from total production 54% are cultivated in these two districts and 50% production is obtained from these areas. |
The areas having moderate production: This area comprises of the central Eastern districts of Punjab. In these Faisalabad, Sahiwal, T.T.Singh, Gujranwala, and in NWFP zone Mansehra and in Baluchistan region Pishin's territory are incorporated. |
Less productive areas: The surrounding districts moderate tobacco producing areas i.e. Sheikhupura, Okara, Vehari, Multan, Jhang, Gujrat and Attock are included in this category. |
Tobacco is a tall, verdant yearly plant, initially developed in South and Central America, however now developed all through the world. Tobacco is a horticultural item prepared from the crisp leaves of plants in the class Nicotiana. Its most regular use is for smoking as a cigarette or stogie. Tobacco is industrially accessible in dried, cured, and common structures. |
Tobacco is the main harvest developed in Pakistan whose yield is well over the world normal and matches the per hectare yield in the US and other created nations a normal yield of 1,900 kilograms for every hectare. Nicotine, an effective focal sensory system stimulant discovered actually in the tobacco leaf, is delegated a medication. Nicotine is one of the primary fixings in tobacco. It is harmful and its higher dosage is to a great degree unsafe. It is usually utilized as a bug spray. Tobacco seeds are scattered onto the surface of the dirt, as their germination is actuated by light. Seedbeds are treated with wood slag or creature excrement. Seedbeds are then secured with branches to shield the youthful plants from ice harm. These plants are left to develop until around April. After the plants have achieved a specific tallness, they are transplanted into fields. This is initially done by making a generally vast gap in the worked earth and afterward put the little plant in the gap. |
Different mechanical tobacco growers were designed all through the late nineteenth and mid twentieth century to robotize this procedure. Beating on tobacco is the evacuation of the terminal bud with or without a portion of the little top leaves just before or after the presence of the bloom head. Instantly in the wake of garnish, the buds in the hub of the leaves, which generally stay torpid, get to be dynamic and set forth shoots known as suckers. Since, |
Yasmeen and Khalid 2017 |
similar to blossoms, the suckers additionally turn into a deplete on the supplements of the plant, these are likewise |
expelled. The expulsion of these suckers is called suckering or de-suckering. |
Topping decreases lodging, both by expelling the seed head and by prompting advancement of more grounded roots. It additionally builds the leaf territory of the upper 1/3 of the plant and rushes leaf development. Topped plants have turgid leaves and can withstand more prominent dampness worry than non-topped plants. |
For good retunes, just the same number of leaves ought to be left on the plant as are equipped for developing. For most extreme yield under a given arrangement of ecological conditions, a specific least number of leaves per hectare are required, regardless of whether this number is gotten by high plant populace and low fixing or low plant populace and high fixing. Suckering is done either physically or by applying chemicals. In the event that the cultivators and the ventures both are to receive the rewards of these chemicals, suckericides ought to be put on the administrations free import rundown are adequate for local generation organized. |
Tobacco is reaped in one of two ways. |
In the most established strategy, the whole plant is gathered without a moment's delay by removing the stalk at the ground with a sickle. |
In the nineteenth century, brilliant tobacco started to be reaped by picking singular leaves off the stalk as they aged. The leaves age starting from the earliest stage, so a field of tobacco may experience a few "pickings" before the tobacco is totally collected, and the stalks might be transformed into the dirt. The main yield at the exceptionally base of the stalks are called "sand drags", as they are regularly against the ground and are covered with soil sprinkled up when it downpours. Sand drags measure the most, and are most hard to work with. Initially specialists edited the tobacco and put it on creature pulled sleds. |
In the long run tractors with wagons are utilized to transport leaves to the stringer, a contraption which utilizes twine to sew leaves onto a stick. A few ranchers utilize "tobacco collectors" - essentially a trailer hauled behind a tractor. The collector is a wheeled sled or trailer that has seats for the croppers to sit on and situates just before these for the "stringers" to sit on. The croppers pull the leaves off in modest bunches, and pass these to the "stringer", who circles twine around the modest bunches of tobacco and hangs them on a long wooden square shaft. Generally, the croppers, down oblivious and wet, with their countenances getting slapped by the tremendous tobacco leaves, were men, and the stringers situated on the higher raised seats were ladies. |
The reaper has places for four groups of specialists, eight individuals editing and hanging, in addition to a packer who takes the substantial hung surveys of wet green tobacco from the stringers and packs them onto the bed area of the gatherer, in addition to a driver, making the aggregate team of every collector 10 individuals. |
Curiously, the external seats are suspended from the collector - threw out over to fit into the passageways of tobacco. As these seats are suspended it is imperative to adjust the heaviness of the two outside groups (like a play area see-saw). |
Having too substantial or light a man in a lopsided mix frequently brings about the gatherer tipping over particularly when pivoting toward the end of a path. Water tanks are a typical element on the reaper because of warmth, and peril of drying out for the specialists. Salt tablets infrequently get utilized also. Cut plants or pulled leaves are instantly exchanged to tobacco stables (oven houses), where they will be cured. Curing strategies differ with the kind of tobacco developed, and tobacco outbuilding configuration fluctuates as needs be. Air-cured tobacco is hung in very much ventilated horse shelters and permitted to dry over a time of four to eight weeks. |
Fire-cured tobacco is hung in vast horse shelters where flames of hardwoods are continued constant or discontinuous low seethe and takes between three days and ten weeks, contingent upon the procedure and the tobacco. Pipe cured tobacco was initially hung onto tobacco sticks, which were dangled from level shafts in curing outbuildings. |
These outbuildings have pipes which keep running from remotely encouraged fire boxes, warm curing the tobacco without presenting it to smoke, gradually raising the temperature through the span of the curing. The procedure will by and large take about a week. Curing and resulting maturing takes into consideration the moderate oxidation and corruption of carotenoids in tobacco leaf. This delivers certain mixes in tobacco leaves fundamentally the same as and give a sweet feed, tea, rose oil, or fruity fragrant flavor that add to the "smoothness" of the smoke. Un-matured or low quality tobacco is regularly seasoned with these actually happening mixes. |
Tobacco enhancing is a noteworthy wellspring of income for the global multi-million dollar flavor and aroma industry. The maturing procedure proceeds for a time of months and frequently reaches out into the post-curing harvest handle. After tobacco is cured, it is moved from the curing horse shelter into a capacity range for handling. For both cut and pulled tobacco, the leaves are then sorted into various evaluations. In pioneer times, the tobacco was then "prized" into hogsheads for transportation. |
In brilliant tobacco districts, prizing was supplanted by stacking wrapped "hands" into free heaps to be sold at closeout. Today, most cured tobacco is baled before deals are made under pre-sold contracts. Tobacco water is a |
J. Basic. Appl. Sci. Res., 7(4)1-17, 2017 |
customary natural bug spray utilized as a part of local planting. Tobacco tidy can be utilized correspondingly. It is |
delivered by bubbling solid tobacco in water, or by soaking the tobacco in water for a more drawn out period. |
At the point when cooled the blend can be connected as a shower, or "painted" on to the leaves of garden plants, where it will demonstrate destructive to bugs. Topical tobacco glue is in some cases prescribed as a treatment for wasp, hornet, and fire subterranean insect, scorpion, and honey bee stings. A sum equal to the substance of a cigarette is squashed in a glass with around a 0. 5 to 1 teaspoon of water to make a glue that is then connected to the influenced region. |
Glue has a measurement of 4 to 5 cm (1. 5 to 2 inches) and maybe ought to be saturated in dry climate. In the event that made and connected promptly, total abatement is normal inside 2030 minutes, and soon thereafter the glue can be expelled. The following day there might be some remaining tingling, however for all intents and purposes no swelling or redness. |
There is by all accounts no logical confirmation, up 'til now, that this regular home cure attempts to ease torment. For around 2 percent of individuals, unfavorably susceptible responses can be life-undermining and require crisis treatment. For additional on this, see honey bee stings. |
On account of their nicotine fixation, numerous smokers think that it’s hard to stop smoking notwithstanding their insight into sick wellbeing impacts. |
The fundamental wellbeing dangers in tobacco relate to infections of the cardiovascular framework, specifically myocardial dead tissue (heart assault), ailments of the respiratory tract, for example, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, emphysema, and tumor, especially lung malignancy and growths of the larynx and tongue. |
4. Agriculture in KPK |
Horticulture is a critical part of KPK's economy in financial terms as well as regarding work. Be that as it may, just 30% of KPK's territory is cultivable. Significant field harvests of KPK incorporate grains (wheat, maize, grain, rice and millet), gram, sugarcane and tobacco, and real cultivation crops incorporate apples, potatoes and tomatoes. In 2011-12, KPK created 4.4% of the national yield of wheat, 20.2% of maize, 18.6% of grain, 1.3% of rice, 0.6% of millet, 3.4% of gram, 8% of sugarcane, and 83% of tobacco. Indeed, more than 75% of Pakistan's tobacco is developed in KPK. Raising domesticated animals is additionally a noteworthy wellspring of wage. |
By 2012, there were approximately 1,821 industrial units that were running in KPK. Significant ventures incorporate canning and safeguarding of leafy foods, assembling and refining of sugar, cotton materials, bond, furniture, and tobacco preparing. Mineral production also contributes to the economy of KPK. Limestone, marble, rock salt and gypsum are a few of the major minerals mined. |
Qualitative analysis: |
4.1 Tobacco in KPK: |
Tobacco, the major cash crop of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, produces about 95% of Flue Cured Virginia (tobacco used for cigarette) and 75% of Rustica (used for making snuff) type. Generally, tobacco growing areas have much potential to produce high profit crop. |
In 2012, the total irrigated area in Pakistan was 1.8 million hectares while total area under tobacco cultivation was 47000 hectares or .07% in Pakistan, 3% in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and 55% in District Swabi. Furthermore, its contribution to GDP was 4.4% which was the highest as compared to other crops. For example, wheat was cultivated on an area of about 27.5% but its contribution to GDP was only 2.6% in 2008. Tobacco is the single biggest contributor to excise duty ─ six times more than that of cotton yarn. |
Nearly, this money edit pulls in ranchers inferable from stable worldwide market, preferable transportation to buy focuses over different products like sugarcane, beats, leafy foods. Tobacco created riches assumes a part to enhance ranchers' lives in rustic ranges. From development to income era, it has critical monetary increases. |
As the biggest monetary patron ─ the part of tobacco is obvious from the way that more than 5% of the aggregate government's income is earned by tobacco. The administration gathers Central Excise Duty, Sales Tax, Income Tax and Development Cess (a commonplace assessment) on tobacco and its finished results. Pakistan had gathered income of 70 billion amid 2001-02 which was expanded to 89 billion in 2013-14 from tobacco and its items. In addition, tobacco generation, exchanging, preparing and assembling of finished results i.e. Cigarettes and Snuff (In Pashto dialect snuff is called Naswar) and so on are additionally a productive business in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. |
The area of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is known for quality tobacco production-due to its suitable climatic conditions. The province contributes 95% while the District of Swabi alone 55% of Flu Cured Virginia tobacco to cigarette industry. Moreover, 75% of Rustica (used in Snuff) tobacco is grown in the province as well. It is an important source of foreign exchange as it earned Rs.2732.29 million during 2011-12. |
Tobacco has a great potential of employment, wealth and tax generation which is evident from the fact that the Lakson Tobacco Company was established in 1971 and over a period of forty years, it became a group of industries. |
Yasmeen and Khalid 2017 |
Tobacco crop and industry has a remarkable impact which is evident from the fact that like Lakson, Imperial |
Tobacco Industries, was started in 1990 and it established two other branches one in Chakwal and another in Sargodha. The Company extended its business not only inside Pakistan but also outside the country such as in the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. |
It is to be noticed that the quick development of a portion of the national organizations is because of their enormous income and benefit through tobacco business. The tobacco representatives have been impacting the governmental issues of Pakistan both specifically and in a roundabout way. Being a productive venture, tobacco merchants and makers for the sake of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) have earned a delicate picture by the riches ─ created from tobacco. Along these lines, they got sensitivities of the general population and eventually go into the legislative issues of Pakistan at provincial and national level. |
Tobacco and its related business have likewise added to the ascent and development of neighborhood business parties who generally go into legislative issues of the region. In the most recent fifteen years, the legislative issues of Swabi (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa) which was customarily overwhelmed by patriot stages, for example, the ANP, is currently rotating around the people, certain families and gatherings who are one way or the other associated with tobacco. Through numerous monetary and social activities, individuals are obliged to Tarakai House (the place of the main political figures of Swabi who possess tobacco industry). They had begun Imperial Tobacco Industry in 1990. |
Khan (1990) argued that although tobacco occupied a relatively very small area of 0.07% of the total irrigated land in Pakistan ─ yet it is of great economic significance for the country. According to Khan (1998) few crops require as much labor as does tobacco growers. |
Tucker (1982) has reported that tobacco production was one of the most controversial crops of the world, second to poppy. |
Add up to tobacco development region in KPK is 36,016 hectares that produces 93,080 tons of tobacco with estimation of Rs 10.09 billion. Real locale, where tobacco is for the most part created, are Swabi 38 for each penny, Mardan 25 for each penny, Charsadda 15 for every penny, Buner 6 for every penny, Mansehra 5 for each penny and others 11 for every penny, Pakistan Tobacco Company (PTC) most recent report says. Nearly the majority of the nation's Flue-Cured, Virginia keeping in mind Patta tobacco is delivered in KP alone. The yield/hectare of tobacco delivered in KP is 14 percent higher than worldwide normal and 22 for every penny higher than national normal, the report adds. Approximately 38 for each penny of the aggregate creation - 35000 tons - are bought by PTC. |
5. Income generated by Tobacco industry |
Tobacco is the real money yield of Pakistan. Amid the day and age 1960-2006, huge vacillations in tobacco profitability and its zone under development occurred. In 1960-61, the aggregate range under tobacco product was 39 thousand hectares which has been expanded to 51 thousands hectares in 200607.

The general financial commitment turns out to be more claimed if the approximately Rs. 15 billion ventures made by tobacco industry as beneficial plants, apparatus and gear are too taken into full thought. |
The tobacco business likewise contributes towards building up the modern area by presenting universal models and worldwide best practices in basic territories, for example, Environment, Health and Safety. |
Tobacco is one of only a handful few products in Pakistan that has yield per hectare equivalent to universal models. Tobacco agriculturists, prepared in great horticulture rehearses by the tobacco business, are known to have connected their insight to different products bringing about expanded yields of those different products as well. |
The business is likewise a principle supporter to the Government exchequer with almost Rs. 50 billion gathered in the types of Excise Tax, Sales Impose, Tobacco Development Cess, and different expenses. Nonetheless, about one out of five cigarettes sold in Pakistan have either been produced or snuck without paying the proper duties bringing about an expected yearly loss of Rs. 8.5 billion to the Government. As the Government encounters a deficiency in income accumulation, the assessment agreeable segment of the business is always squeezed with higher expense rates prompting to higher costs that further lessen the aggressiveness of assessment paid cigarettes versus unlawful cigarettes.

There is earnest need to bolster expanded consistence related action to improve income for the Government and make a level playing field for everybody |
Yasmeen and Khalid 2017 |
Tobacco industry has given jobs to 80,000 farmers and source of living for 300,000 people. |
Pakistan is the seventh biggest Flue Cured Virginia tobacco maker on the planet. |
Tobacco is one of only a handful few products in Pakistan that has yield per hectare which is similar universally. |
Under 60% of the tobacco leaf created in Pakistan is utilized to produce obligation paid cigarettes. The rest of the sum is utilized to create obligation non-paid cigarettes, and unregulated items, for example, bidi, naswar and hookah. |
The aggregate interest in tobacco producing units as plants, hardware, types of gear, and so forth surpasses Rs. 15 |
billion. |
There is have to guarantee that tobacco control laws forced by the Government are conformed to by all the tobacco |
business players to make a level playing field. |

Almost 85% units are of retail exchange, trailed by deal/repair (11%) and discount (4%). Inside retail exchange, a large portion of the units i.e. 54% are occupied with offer of nourishment, drinks and tobacco. |
5.2 Contribution to Government Exchequer 5.2.1: Government duty structure |
Cigarette industry has two piece obligation structures. The two sections are: |
1. A level extract obligation of Rs. 117,000 for each million cigarette on brands costing less then Rs. 2.52 for every pack of ten cigarettes (Categories D and E), selective of offers duty. |
2. A 65% extract obligation on brands costing more than Rs. 2.52 for each pack of ten cigarettes, selective of offers expense. |
Other than that 18% deals duty is additionally forced on every one of the brands. |
The principle load on this industry is through backhanded tax collection which is connected on the incomes |
and not on benefits. The immediate duty is the ordinary corporate wage charge @ 30%. |
5.2.2 Tax revenue: |
As per a harsh gauge the aggregate aberrant expense (obligations and deals assess) paid by the two major organizations (PTC, and LTC/PTI) sums to around Rs. 12,903 million which is around 12% of aggregate government charge income from these sources. Then again these organizations' partake in the aggregate wage impose gathered by GOP is just 0.07%. That demonstrates the degree of overwhelming backhanded tax collection on this industry. |
It is critical to separate here between the aggregate cost and retail cost of cigarette packs as that is the manner by which the numerous expenses are required. For instance, a pack of Gold Leaf costs Rs. 73. From that Rs. 62.93 is the retail cost and 10.07 is Sales Tax. |
Other than the Sales Tax, many assessments are forced upon the retail cost of the cigarettes, six to be exact: Federal Excise Duty (FED), Sales Tax (expansion), Special Excise Duty, Customs Duty, Federal Tobacco Cess (FTC) and NWFP Tobacco Development Cess (TDC), which should be clarified in detail underneath: |

J. Basic. Appl. Sci. Res., 7(4)1-17, 2017 |
3. Exceptional Excise Duty: A Special promotion valorem Excise Duty is gathered and demanded at the rate of 1% |
on retail cost less FED. |
4. Traditions Duty: 35% promotion valorem Customs Duty in addition to 15% Luxury Duty (add up to obligation: half) is imposed on the import of completed tobacco items. |
5. Government Tobacco Cess (FTC): FTC (at a rate of 3%) is required by the Pakistan Tobacco Board on unmanufactured tobacco. |
6. NWFP Tobacco Development Cess (TDC): NWFP Government gathers a require at the rate of Rs. 2 for every |
kg for Flue-cured Virginia, Burley and Dark Air Cured assortments and Rs. 1 for each Kg for White Patta. |

The above diagram shows how over the 5 years the tax amount has increased. As of 2012, the amount is approximately more than Rs. 60 Billion. |
Yasmeen and Khalid 2017 |
(Source of 2008*2009, Pakistan Tobacco Industry, Overview and Economic Contribution, 2010, P10). |
The diagram shows how involved the key players of the industry are in the tax net of Pakistan. Both Lakson Tobacco Company (now known as Philip Morris International) and Pakistan Tobacco Company together make up 99.3% of the Tax Paying Industry, whereas the total market share of these two is 82% and now 80.8% as of 2012. |
The tax contribution is far greater than the market share of these companies, in total they contribute more than Rs. 60 Billion to the National Exchequer, which means, ‘that any increases in the tax rates would drastically affect their costs, the prices of their products and so the sales also’. These ideas will advance unfurl as the writing survey dives further into the relationship of assessments and deals. |
(Source: The political economy of tobacco taxation, Chapter 4, P86, http://www.who.int/tobacco/publications /en_tfi_tob_tax_chapter4.pdf). |
The table above gives an alternate point of view by indicating how much rate is gotten from tobacco organizations in |
these nations from the aggregate extract income. The rate share similar to the case in each of the three nations is most in the mid-value portion. The table establishes a link between the higher end brands – premium and the middle segment too, Mid Price. |

This outline demonstrates the falling pattern throughout the years for every one of the three: Gross Profit, Operating |
Profit and Profit after Tax for Pakistan Tobacco Company, particularly after 2009, whereby different laws were forced, charges climbed exponentially, and so forth. Overall the Gross Profit has increased from 2006 to 2011, currently at Rs. 6,241 Million, however the Operating Profit and Profit after Tax has decreased, drastically. |
In Britain the tax is more on tobacco, liquor and on such things while the tax is less on milk, vegetables and other things like this. They have established the tax on the base of price of product and the quantity produced. The excise tax is applied to particular commodities like tobacco while sales tax is applied to general commodities. So a large part of excise tax is generated from Tobacco industry. In world war one and two the tax on all the items was reduced but the tax remains on the liquor and tobacco industry. At that time tobacco and liquor tax makes the major contribution in British exchequer. |
6. Foundation |
The study is based on “Public choice theory”. Different authors have defined it in different ways. |
According to Jeff Sims (1999) the pubic theory assumes that people who belong to this business are not interested in their business market but they are interested in public sector. |
Another concept of public choice theory is it is a utilization of economic devices to manage conventional issues of political science”. |
According to Leo Felkins (1997) there are different aspects of Public choice theory. One is “We do it just for you”. It is a claim made by the politician to the general public however it is not true in real sense. It examines the system of government, voting problem and political manipulation. |
According to Thayer Watkins it’s a theory that explains how public decisions are made. |
According to public influence theory government officials allow the re-election to take those decisions that are of their self-interest. |
Another aspect of public choice theory is “short sightedness” effect that states policy makers approve only those policies that gives them immediate benefits. |
As the theory mentioned that policy makers just focus on their own benefits that’s why they have enhanced the tax on the tobacco production because from that tax national treasure is increasing and also getting revenue from the export of tobacco finished products and raw material. This income will help them to initiate projects when they are in power in country and to show the public that this much work is done by the government for you; so they next time will again vote them. It is also an impact of public policy theory that mention above “we do it for you”. |
