The Islamabad Chamber of Commerce & Industry (ICCI) has shown grave concerns over the gas suspension to industry as well as electricity load shedding, saying these would badly affect industrial productivity and ultimately hurt the overall economy.
ICCI President Sardar Yasir Ilyas Khan said that the supply of gas was stopped abruptly to various industries in Islamabad including steel re-rolling mills and steel furnaces, which has badly disturbed their production schedules.
