Punjab Govt Sets Wheat Release Price at Rs3,800 per Maund Amid Flour Price Concerns

The Punjab government has set the price of wheat release at Rs3,800 per maund across the province to maintain stability in wheat and flour supply.

This decision was made after approval from the Punjab Cabinet and is aimed at keeping market prices under control.

The federal government directed Punjab to immediately procure wheat from the Pakistan Agricultural Storage and Services Corporation (PASSCO), with an initial allocation of 300,000 metric tons, of which 200,000 metric tons have already been received.
