Another wheat crisis!
This time its the Government of sindh to blame for this price hike.
First, they set 2000/40kg as their support price, which means they are buying wheat from farmers at Rs. 50/kg which is a good step as it will give good profits to farmers. On the other hand consumer will not be able to buy wheat flour at cheaper rate.
Secondly, Sindh government has imposed restriction on transportation of wheat from one district to another, which has stopped wheat supply in karachi, which is causing the rise in the prices.
All in all, increase in price of wheat products is inevitable. It will also decrease the chances of wheat smuggling so that we do not have to import wheat again.
Awam ko thora samjhna parega!
