In the Site area of Hyderabad, heavy rains have caused significant disruptions to industrial activities. Dilapidated roads, damaged drainage infrastructure, and prolonged power outages have resulted in factory shutdowns and difficulty for laborers to reach their workplaces. The Sindh government is urged to take concrete measures to prevent such disruptions during future monsoon seasons.
The Hyderabad SITE Association of Trade and Industry, comprising Zubair Ghanghra, Amir Shahab, Kumar, and Mohammad Shahid Qaimkhani, issued a joint statement expressing their concerns. They noted that despite prior requests for better drainage and road repairs, no action was taken in a timely manner. The association currently represents 360 operating units in the Site area, down from 425, contributing Rs1bn in taxes to the government.
