Stating that the 15 percent hike in gas tariff would ultimately raise the production cost of the textile industry, Mr. Jawaad called for immediate roll back of the decision in the interest of the country’s export industry which is passing through its most critical phase.

Drawing attention to a situation where textile production is falling sharply, PHMA Chief said this has raised the redundancy threat for workers, which has increased the country’s poverty level. Given the situation, the Government is expected to initiate supportive measures rather than further pressuring the industry by hiking gas prices, he said.
