The demands include abolishing income and sales tax for domestic consumers for four months, ending overbilling, ensuring meter readings are conducted on the 31st day, and resolving issues related to loadshedding and overbilling.

Miftah Ismail claimed that overbilling is widespread across Pakistan and called on the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) to investigate the matter.

He also urged the removal of the 18 percent sales tax on furnace oil and liquified natural gas (LNG), which he argued would reduce consumer bills by 30 percent.

The Awami Pakistan Party leader further demanded relief for consumers by eliminating income and sales tax, criticizing the government for increasing expenditures. He proposed reducing MNAs’ development budgets to provide financial relief in electricity costs.
