In developing countries tax revenue is limited but government follow more of political compulsions rather than economic consideration so it's lead to financial deficit. To over come it government had to borrow loans or to increase taxes, after increases but revenue generated is limited hence they had to go other means to refinance deficit. So Central Banks losses its autonomy and forced by governments to refinance or monetize by providing funds and clearing loans by printing extra money. If government don't refinance but increase taxes then there will be threat to go out of office by voting.
So developing countries faces backslash due to political consideration.
