So Finance Minister knew, but according to IK neither him nor Asad Umer knew. Jhoota kon?

IK wasn't in the loop. Umar was and has said so himself. IK-Umar communication gaps are there. IK keeps coming up with grandiose and expensive ideas that we can't afford. Umar knows this but has trouble reigning his boss in.
