Karachi (Business Desk): Karachi Chamber of Commerce President Talat Mahmood has strongly condemned the registration of a case under the Karachi Water and Sewerage Corporation Act 2023 against an industrialist and business leader from the North Karachi Industrial Area, describing it as an apparently retaliatory move.
He said the action raised serious questions about the conduct and intentions of the authorities concerned. Expressing concern over the background and circumstances of the case, Talat Mahmood said the industrialist had consistently raised his voice against ongoing water, gas and electricity shortages faced by industrialists, factory owners and small and medium-sized businesses operating in the North Karachi Industrial Area.
He said it was regrettable that an industrialist highlighting problems related to basic facilities was being targeted, and demanded the immediate withdrawal of the case.
