Legal Argument Unveiled

The legal representative of Naan Buy Association raised an important point during the hearing. He said that as per the notification of the magistrate, Roti has been fixed at Rs 16 but under Price Control Act these notifications should be issued by the provincial government not the Controller General. This puts a question on the validity of pricing mechanism which is being followed right now.

Economic Ramifications

According to Naanbais Assossiation lawyer government order to sale roti 16 rupees and sale naan 20 rupees they said it is impossible to sell at government price because roti costs us 27 rupees and naan costs 30 rupees so tell us how we can sale it in goverment’s rate.
