Kati concerned over gas shortage in industrial areas

KARACHI: The Korangi Association of Trade and Industry (Kati) has expressed concern over the strike call by a petroleum dealer, a statement said.
Kati president Salman Aslam said that non-supply of petrol would affect the supply of finished products in the local and export goods, which could harm the industrialists and the economy.
The price of petrol is already at the highest level and transportation has become very expensive, he said and demanded the government not to increase the price of petrol.
The problems should be resolved after consultation with the petroleum dealers. The dealers’ profits can be enhanced by reducing the levy on petrol but the burden on the public should be avoided.
The Kati president also appealed to the petroleum dealers to resolve the dispute by negotiating with the government, while understanding the problems of the people, and fix a reasonable profit so that the transportation system is not affected.
He expressed the hope that the two sides would not become a burden on the people by finding a solution to the problem through dialogue.
