The Finance Division, categorically rejecting the messages about imposing economic emergency, has said it is aimed at creating uncertainty about economic situation in the country.

In a statement, the Finance Division said there is no planning to impose economic emergency and such messages can only be spread by those who do not want to see Pakistan prosper.

It said spread of such false messages is against national interest in these times of economic hardship.

The Finance Division said it is quite inappropriate to equate Pakistan with Sri Lanka, given inherent strength and diversity in Pakistan's economy.
