Traders express outrage over outdated price list
Traders argue that district officials should have consulted with traders before preparing rate list
RAWALPINDI:
The flatbread makers, milkmen and grocers have rejected the new rate lists issued by the deputy commissioner (DC) and instead announced selling products on unofficial rates, the office-bearers of different traders bodies told The Express Tribune on Sunday.
They lamented how the items could be sold at official rates when they were not available on the wholesale price mentioned in the list. They said that the rate list was prepared by district officials sitting in air-conditioned rooms with no knowledge of the trade, adding that they should have consulted with the traders.
