The delegation, comprising Iqbal Qureshi, Saleem Qureshi, Qayamuddin Qureshi and others, maintained that at present

Wednesday and Thursday were being observed as meatless days in Karachi which was creating a lot of problems. This was not only making meat costly but also disrupting the supplies and encouraging illegal slaughtering, they added.—APP
