MANSEHRA: Transporter from across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have warned the government to withdraw the recent hike in prices of petroleum products and compressed natural gas. “We have summoned a meeting in Peshawar for November 21 to give the call for protest if the government doesn’t reduce petroleum and CNG prices to their previous rates,” Jan Alam, the president of transporters union in Mansehra, told reporters on Thursday. Alam, who was flanked by general secretary of transporters body Pervez Khan Swati and other office-bearers, stated that they had given one-week time to the government to reverse the recent increase in oil and gas prices but the government didn’t show any flexibility. He said transporters were annoyed across the province over the rapid increase in fuel prices and would take to the streets and observe wheel-jam strike across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
