CM gives 24 hours deadline to administration for availability of flour at govt rate

LAHORE (Dunya News) - Chief Minister (CM) Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has directed the food department and the administration to take every step for ensuring the sale of flour at a fixed rate within 24 hours.

He made it clear that hoarders will not be allowed to exploit the people and sale of flour at an excessive rate will not be allowed. Action will be initiated against those involved in overcharging, he warned.

I will not tolerate any delay in the provision of flour bags to the people at a fixed rate after the release of government wheat to flour mills, he stated.

The CM further directed that government decisions should be strictly implemented and administrative machinery should fulfil its responsibility against hoarders by going out in the field and taking stock of the situation at the grassroots.
