Fruit and vegetable vendors, selling on Suzuki vans in the Federal Capital, were reportedly charging exorbitant and higher rates from the costumers. Residents of Federal Capital buy vegetables and fruits from vegetable vendors due to the convenience as the vendors come to every street of each sector. Shumaila Khan, a housewife said "I get fresh vegetables and a fruit from Suzuki vegetable vendor on daily basis and it is convenient for me to buy vegetables at my doorstep". However, she complained that these vendors were overcharging.
Ayesha Karim said" Vegetables vendors over charges for vegetables and fruits which disturbed me a lot, otherwise it is easy to buy vegetables and fruits in fresh condition."
When contacted Capital Development Authority (CDA), an official of Enforcement Wing said; "This is totally illegal and we apprehended several vendors at I-9 sector. We not only checked the prices we are also trying to banish this illegal activity."
