LAKKI MARWAT: The district administration has launched a crackdown on sugar hoarders on the instructions of the provincial government to ensure availability of the commodity in bazaars and markets.
District Food Controller (DFC) Aman Khan said on Wednesday that a team of the food department had started inspecting godowns and warehouses of the businessmen to check hoarding of sugar. “Deputy Commissioner Abdul Hadi is supervising the special drive against hoarders and profiteers,” he maintained.
