KARACHI – President Korangi Association of Trade and Industry (KATI) Salman Aslam has expressed concern over the reduction and shortage of gas pressure in the Korangi Industrial Area. He said that the trade adviser of PM and Ministers had assured that uninterrupted supply of gas to the industrial area and export industry would continue, but despite the repeated assurances of the government, the problem of gas shortage in the Korangi industrial area was getting serious. He said that Korangi Industrial Area has an important position in exports and the top exporters of the country are from the Korangi industries.
President KATI said that the industrialists were facing difficulties in completing the export orders on time, due to which they feared financial loss. Salman Aslam demanded from the government to ensure supply of gas to industrial areas on a priority basis. He said that the government was taking all possible steps for the promotion of the industry and hoped that a solution to the gas problem facing the industries would be found soon.
