Pakistan economically already in Default Because Pakistan take loan not for development but for payment of interest of debt. as a result day by day debt will be increased , inflation will be high , currency will be devalued very fast, foreign investment almost shutdown , foreign reserve will be decreased , government most of budget expenditure will be used in unproductive sector at last majority of the people will be sufferer by the effect of economical crisis and people unable to afford basic needs "basic needs" of not just food, water, clothing and shelter, but also sanitation, education, and healthcare. this all things are already present in Pakistan, So collapse of whole structure of Pakistan is a matter of time ..
