Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI), which is the apex body representing the business community of Pakistan, has condemned the gas crisis presently afflicting the country in very strong terms. Senior leaders of the business community have criticised government’s failure to manage the ongoing gas crisis, terming it disastrous for the country’s industry, already reeling from the effects of a precarious law and order situation and the falling competitiveness. Senator Haji Ghulam Ali, Presdident-FPCCI; Mr Tariq Sayeed, VP-CACCI, Mr S.M. Muneer, President-India Pakistan CCI and Mr Iftikhar Ali Malik, VP-SAARC CCI have condemned the curtailed supply of gas to industry on one hand, and the government’s decision to raise CNG prices on the other.
