LAHORE – In the country’s most populous province, the new government has made it possible for markets to stay open past 9 p.m. to help the traders.
The coalition government led by Hamza Shahbaz had put lockdowns on major cities every week, but CM Elahi got rid of those.
PTI-backed Punjab CM also told the secretary of the industry to put out a notice about the changes and tell everyone who needs to know, including the district administrations.
In the past, the PML-N government forced businesses to close at 9 pm to save energy because there wasn’t enough power.
