The Pakistan Economy Watch (PEW) has demanded stern action against sugar mills mafia which is blackmailing the Government, hurting consumers and crushing farmers.
Sugar mills have stopped the supply of the commodity in Karachi and some other places to force the government to increase the export subsidy to make extra money, it said.
The prices of sugar have artificially been hiked benefiting the mafia controlling the supply of the product in the country on the cost of masses, said Dr. Murtaza Mughal, President PEW.
He said that why politicians and other influential are allowed to set up sugar mills if the national production is already surplus and costly enough to be exported.
