KARACHI: Industrialists on Wednesday rejected the government plan of gas supply discontinuation to captive power plants (CPPs) for general industry from Feb 1 and export-oriented sectors from March 1 calling it an anti-economy move and asking political parties to play their role in saving the country’s exports.
Speaking at a press conference at the Jamaat-i-Islami’s Idara Noor-i-Haq headquarters, JI leader Hafiz Naeemur Rahman and industrialists and leaders of the SITE, Korangi, North Karachi, F. B Area and SITE-Superhighway associations sought immediate response from the federal government over their “anti-Karachi and anti-industry” move.
