Companies directed to print consumer price on products

Chairman Task force on essential commodities S. A.

He issued these directives while chairing a meeting here on Thursday in this regard, says a spokesman of the task force.
He said that the consumers were being exploited by not printing consumer price on drinks, juices, milk and water bottles. He claimed that shopkeepers were charging 20 to 25 percent more prices at common shops while 25 to 40 per cent on stores set up at petrol pumps, CNG stations and those situated on big roads.
