In a statement, PCDMA Chairman Salim Valimohammad expressed gratitude to Federal Minister for Energy (Petroleum Division) Ali Pervaiz Malik, Director General of Explosives Abdul Ali Khan, and Director Muhammad Aftab Qazi for their support and timely intervention. He acknowledged the extension as a positive step, but warned it is technically only a 42-day reprieve from the September 11 issuance date, falling short of the average 60\u201390-day import cycle required by industry. \u201cThe extension provides some breathing space, but the fundamental problem remains unresolved,\u201d said Mr Valimohammad.
