title: "PHMA urges PM to address new electricity bill format"
description: "Most outlets reported that the Pakistan Hosiery Manufacturers and Exporters Association (PHMA) has urged Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to take notice of the new electricity bill format, emphasizing concerns about transparency and consumer rights. The Business Recorder led with the PHMA’s call and included a reference to the implementation date of June 2026, while the Daily Times added context about the bill undermining transparency and consumer rights. Both excerpts attribute the same core action — urging the PM — but differ slightly in framing the implications."
