LAHORE – A petition was filed in the Lahore High Court (LHC) on Monday seeking court orders to restrain the federal government from further increasing the electricity prices and declare all taxes levied on electricity bills as unconstitutional. Rana Ilmddin filed the petition submitting that the unnecessary and illegal taxes imposed by the federal government had forced the people to commit suicides. He said that people were paying direct or indirect taxes on every commodity they bought.
