The Pakistan Goods Transport Alliance has rejected the recent increase in petroleum product prices, declaring it unacceptable. Alliance President Malik Shahzad Awan said transporters cannot bear further losses, stressing that the frequent hikes in petrol and diesel prices are creating instability within the transport sector. 

He announced a 3% increase in fares, warning that transport unions are set to make another major decision soon if the government does not reconsider the price hike. It is to be noted that the federal government announced new petrol prices and diesel prices for the next fortnight.
