Sargodha Administration Cracks Down on Profiteering Shopkeepers

In a bid to curb profiteering activities, the district administration in Sargodha recently took decisive action against five shopkeepers. The crackdown was carried out by price control magistrates who conducted inspections at various locations, including Mid Ranjha, Mid Morr, Kot Momin, and Bhagtanwala road.

During the inspections, it came to light that shopkeepers named Amir, Fiyyaz, Sultan, Zafar, and Ijaz were found to be engaging in profiteering practices. In response to this violation, cases were promptly registered against them, and fines were imposed as a deterrent.

This action underscores the commitment of the authorities to ensure fair pricing practices and protect consumers from exploitation. By holding accountable those who seek to take advantage of market conditions, the administration is sending a clear message that profiteering will not be tolerated in Sargodha.
