Prices of petroleum products reviewed due to surge in int'l oil prices: Shibli
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Information Minister Shibli Faraz has said the prices of petroleum products have been reviewed due to surge in international oil prices.
In a tweet on Saturday, he said welfare of the people is the priority of government and efforts will be continued to provide them the relief.
The Minister, however, said the increase made in Pakistan is less than when compared with other regional countries.
