Sindh transporters have declared a 10% reduction in fares following the significant decrease in the prices of petrol and diesel. This decision comes after a meeting between the Sindh transport department and a delegation of the transport association.
Key Details:
- Sindh transporters have officially announced a 10% reduction in intercity fares after discussions with the transport department.
- The decision to cut fares is in response to the substantial decrease in petrol and diesel prices, providing relief to commuters.
- The transport department issued a warning of strict legal action against any offenders and emphasized the implementation of the fare reduction.
- In a similar move, the Islamabad Transport Authority (ITA) has also announced a 10% reduction in transport fares for both inter-city and intra-city routes.
- The decision by ITA was made following instructions from Deputy Commissioner Islamabad Irfan Nawaz Memon and aligns with the government’s reduction in petroleum product prices.
- The reduced fares will be applied to 23 different routes in the Islamabad district and intra-city transport outside Islamabad.
This fare reduction by Sindh transporters and the Islamabad Transport Authority is a positive response to the recent drop in fuel prices. Commuters are expected to benefit from the lowered fares on various routes.
