KESC management, employees: Industries suffering badly due to conflict

Industries are suffering badly due to ongoing conflict between management and employees of the KESC resulting in massive power outages every day. The Patron In-Chief, Korangi Association of Trade and Industry (KATI), S M Muneer, Chairman, Syed Johaur Ali Qandhari and former Chairman, Mian Zahid Husain said in a statement that frequent power outages, non-compliance of faults and breakdowns' complaints lodged by the industries are resulting in a massive loss of production.
They said that particularly export-oriented are suffering most as without power for long hours production remains suspended and exporters are extremely worried about meeting their commitment abroad. The industry is, in effect, at the precipice of economic disaster.
They appealed to the KESC management and employees to sort out their ongoing, prolonged dispute and create harmony so that consumers should not suffer any more otherwise many industries would be closed down due to the pathetic situation. They further said that KESC employees should refrain from any conflict in the larger interest of the KESC and their own. They advised that employees should rather seek justice from the court.-PR
