PESHAWAR: Sarhad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) president Muhammad Ishaq praised the decision of Peshawar Electric Supply Company (Pesco) for giving two-day extension in payment of bills for industrial consumers.
Ishaq in a statement issued here on Wednesday stated that SCCI had given a recommendation to Pesco to make extension in payment of electricity bills while keeping the prolonged Eid holidays.

Following the recommendation of the SCCI, he said Pesco has extended the date for payment of electricity bills for industrial consumers from 26th to 28th April, which is a highly laudable step that has definitely provided relief to industrial consumers to some extent.
