Pakistan Muslim League (N) on Thursday submitted adjournment motion regarding increase in the electricity tariff and three recent incidents involving PIA ATR-42 aircrafts, in which two had developed engine fault and one caught fire.
The adjournment motion that included PML-N members Chaudhry Barjees Tahir, Malik Shakeel Awan, Malik Abrar, Rana Tanvir Hussain, Engineer Khurram Dastaghir, Saira Afzal, Muhammad Naseer Bhutta and others termed the increase in the electricity tariff as un-reasonable and unjustified. PML-N said that the tariff rise will cause resentment among the masses, hence must be discussed in the House.
Serious concerns were expressed over the maintenance and safety of PIA aircrafts and the travelers in particular.
