The Brick Kiln Owners’ Association has announced a 15-day suspension of brick sales nationwide from March 25 if their seven-point demands are not met. This move could leave nearly 5 million workers, including 1 million women, unemployed and cause significant financial losses for 14,000 brick kiln owners. Association President Firoz Haider Khan warned that banks may face difficulties recovering loans worth $800 million if operations are halted.
