Wheat flour price hikes in Pakistan, says report | ABP Special

Wheat flour price has hiked up to PKR (Pakistani Rupee) 75 per kg for the first time ever in several Pakistani cities amid a serious shortage of supplies, local media reported on Tuesday. The nanbais (roti sellers) in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have gone on a strike after failed negotiations with the provincial government. Taking notice of the reports about an uncontrolled surge in prices of flour, Prime Minister Imran Khan has ordered a nation-wide crackdown on hoarders and profiteers to curb the flour crisis.
