PESHAWAR: Mineral Association Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Friday rejected the tax on the mineral industry.

Speaking at a press conference, association president Dr Afsar Khan, General Secretary Syed Abdur Rauf and others said that the government should reconsider its decision as it would destroy the mining industry.

They said the government should constitute a committee which must include the representatives of the mining industry.
