They said unscheduled loadshedding of electricity is adversely affecting production of the industry. They further said it was hoped that the interim government would resolve the issues of industrial sector. “It was expected that the government would take steps to ensure relief for the business community but all such hopes gained nothing but frustration,” they said adding the sector has been left with no other option but to face enormous problems.
