Pakistan's  Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Bar Council recently condemned the continuous hike in the price of essential commodities in Pakistan.

In a joint statement issued here, the KP Bar Council’s vice chairman Zarbadshah Khan and its executive committee chairman Syed Mubashir Shah demanded of the government to forthwith abolish free provision of electricity, natural gas and petrol and free air tickets provided to bureaucrats, judges, army officers, etc, reports Dawn News.

They stated that continuous price hike especially of essential commodities had badly affected the general public and made their lives miserable. They stated that the legal fraternity would observe complete boycott of all the courts on Thursday, the newspaper reported.

They also asked all district and tehsil bar associations to hold protest meetings in their respective barrooms.

They also announced that the bar council would provide free legal assistance to people in cases in the consumers courts.
