KARACHI: Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar has said that the federal government will resolve the problems faced by the business community of Karachi on priority basis.
This was stated by the caretaker prime minister while talking to Governor Sindh, Kamran Khan Tessori who called on him in Karachi on Wednesday.
During the meeting, the Governor Sindh briefed Anwaar-ul-Kakar in detail about the administration matters and the overall law and order situation of the province.
Tessori also presented the recommendation about the power tariff prepared by Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) and the city’s traders.
Premier Kakar thanked the Governor Sindh and issued directives to the relevant authorities to work on the recommendation and present a report as soon as possible.
Earlier on Saturday, the Pakistani traders went on strike against the soaring cost of living, including higher fuel and utility bills and record depreciation of the rupee against the dollar, which has led to widespread discontent among the public.
The traders pulled their shutters down across the country, while protesters burned tires on roads to express their anger.
