In a decisive move against profiteering, four additional commissioners in Abbottabad district have taken action, resulting in the arrest of multiple shopkeepers across the city, including Havelian. The crackdown saw the sealing of shops and issuance of warning letters to numerous violators found charging exorbitant prices, as mandated by the district administration.

Additional Assistant Commissioner Lubna Iqbal, accompanied by the Assistant Food Controller, led inspections in Havelian, targeting meat, chicken, fruit, vegetable, grocery markets, and shopping malls. Seven individuals were apprehended for overpricing, underscoring the government’s commitment to ensuring fair pricing for essential commodities. Price Control Magistrates are actively engaged in their respective areas to uphold consumer rights in line with government directives.
