PESHAWAR – Pakistan People’s Party-Sherpao (PPP-S) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa President Sikandar Hayat Khan demanded the government take back the newly imposed load and unload tax that was the business communities outcry. Hayak said the imposition of the new tax in the shape of load and unload tax was a genuine concern of the business community that was suffering under the prevailing law and order situation.
He said there was no justification to impose the tax on traders already suffering from terrorism. He said Instead of encouraging the business community, it is being disheartened. He said the province was sliding toward anarchy due to false policies and had no economy revival program.
