Production activity in the five industrial estates of the city remained normal on Saturday and there was no impact of the strike call given by Tehreek Tahafuz-i-Khatame Nabuat, Jamiat-i-Ulema Islam (JUI) and supported by Jamaat-i-Islami for Saturday.
Citizens of the city were fearing a backlash on Friday, owing to the killing of religious scholars Mufti Saeed Ahmed Jalalpuri, his 3 associates and a son of Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Nadeem in two different incidents in Nazimabad and Gulzar-i-Hijri on Thursday. Industrialists said although there was thin pubic transport, still, the attendance was normal as the workers managed to report on duty.
