Petrol pumps across Pakistan have shut down in a nationwide strike called by the Pakistan Petroleum Dealers Association (PPDA) over a new turnover tax introduced in the recent budget. The strike, which began on [Date], is a result of the PPDA’s dissatisfaction with the government’s response to their concerns about double taxation. Despite discussions with high-ranking officials, including the Chairman of the Federal Board of Revenue and the petroleum secretary, the government has not met the dealers’ demands. The PPDA chairman, Abdul Sami Khan, has stated that the strike will continue until the unjust turnover tax is withdrawn.
