Pakistan Industrial and Traders Association Front (PIAF) and leaders of business community while strongly criticising the proposed 11 to 14 per cent increase in gas and 31 per cent increase in the hydel-electricity tariff, urged Prime Minister Syed Yousaf Raza Gaillani to reject OGRA and NEPRA anti-industry summaries in larger interest of the country. PIAF Chairman Sohail Lashari, Lahore Township Industries Association Chairman Haroon Shafiq Chaudhry and Auto Parts Manufacturers and Exporters Association Chairman Tahir Javed Malik said that massive increase in one-go in electricity tariff and gas prices is not only anti-industry but anti-masses.
