GHALLANAI: The transporters and labourers working in the marble quarries in Mohmand tribal district on Tuesday threatened to stage protest demonstration outside the provincial assembly building in Peshawar if the government did not withdraw taxes and restore power supply.
The protesters, including transporters and mining workers, earlier staged sit-in on the Bajaur-Peshawar road and blocked it for vehicular traffic for some time.
However, Member National Assembly Sajid Khan Mohmand and officials of district administration visited the sit-in camp and convinced the protesters that their issue would be taken up with the chief minister soon.
The protesters later ended their sit-in and opened the road for traffic.
