The customs officials are on strike to protest against the arrest of two custom officials, said release by Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) here on Saturday.
He argued that the protest has blocked all customs processing/clearance work at all the ports and as such import and export of goods worth billions of rupees has been stuck up.
Mr Dhingra apprehended that this may create shortage of imported industrial raw material causing delay in meeting export orders and consumer goods as well.
