ISLAMABAD:
A Senate panel on Tuesday expressed displeasure on the sale of substandard and expensive food items at tuck shops along the Islamabad-Peshawar motorway.
Chaired by Senator Hidayatullah, the meeting of the Senate Standing Committee on Communications also expressed annoyance over the poor state of washrooms at service areas along the motorway.
Senator Bahramand Tangi noted that tuck shops along the Islamabad-Peshawar motorway sold items at a higher price to the customers, while the public washroom facility was also charged.
