SCCI demands resumption of Peshawar-Karachi PIA flight operation
PESHAWAR, Dec 08 (APP): Sarhad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) expressed concern over closure of PIA flight operation from Peshawar to Karachi and demanded for its immediate resumption.
Junaid Altaf, president of the chamber in a statement issued here on Monday said PIA was operating only one flight from Peshawar to Karachi within a week and this service was availed by business community and people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
However, he said PIA has halted Peshawar to Karachi operation for the last several months, due to which the business community has not only faced difficulties but also inflicted huge revenue loss to the national carrier PIA.
The SCCI president said the PIA move to halt flight operations from Peshawar to Karachi has created great unrest among the business community and people of the province.
He demanded the government and higher management of PIA to immediately resume the flight operation from Peshawar to address their grievances.
Junaid Altaf demanded the PIA should operate two flights from Peshawar to Karachi within a week to facilitate the business community and people of the province.
