Pakistan's Rs 3 Trillion Defence Budget Draws US Oversight Warning

Pakistan is a big country with a large army.

The government plans to give its military a huge amount of money — 3 trillion rupees — to defend the country.

That is so much money that it is hard to even imagine.

Some people worry that nobody is watching how this money is spent.

The United States, which works with Pakistan, wrote a special report about this worry.

The report says Pakistan's parliament and civilian leaders do not have enough control over military and intelligence money.

It also says Pakistan is slow at telling the public about its loans and budget plans.

Knowing how a government spends money helps citizens trust that it is being used fairly.

The United States wants Pakistan to fix these money oversight problems.
