LAHORE: The Pakistan Industrial & Traders Associations Front has appealed the government to review its tight monetary policy stance as it will hamper the production and thwart the economic growth of the country. PIAF senior vice chairman Nasir Hameed and vice chairman Javed Siddiqi, in a joint statement, said that the growth in large-scale manufacturing industries is already nominal in the first quarter of current fiscal year, as the industries were poised to face the impact of high input prices and shortage of gas in winter, while further hike in markup rate is another threat for them.
