Chairman, All Pakistan Organisation of Small Traders and Cottage Industries, Haji Muhammad Haroon Memon has said that the ministry of water and power announced the reduction of 13 per cent of electricity tariff without taking traders into confidence.
No suggestions were taken from the special committee formed for the purpose, he said talking to various delegations of traders of the region on Tuesday. He urged the government to restore tariffs charged prior to recent increase.
He also criticised raise in the fees of new connections, as this would discourage those intending for new ones. He said although power tariff-hike during last several months was around 70 per cent electricity but the decrease was only 13 per cent.
They said that the municipal dispensary was located at the main area of the city and people of town were availing health facilities from nearby dispensary but builders with the connivance of taluka municipal administration Sukkur had demolished it and erecting a plaza and a shopping centre on it.
