On Saturday, the Balochistan government announced that Iranian petrol will be available in the province at Rs280 per litre.
It is pertinent to mention that this petrol price is available for people living in Balochistan only.
On Friday, PM Shehbaz said, “The price of petrol had risen to Rs458 per litre. To ease the impact, I have decided to reduce the petroleum levy by Rs80 per litre, bringing the price down to Rs378″.
Further relief steps were announced by both federal and provincial authorities. The government confirmed that train fares would remain unchanged, road taxes would not be increased, and free public bus services would be provided in the federal capital as well as in Punjab and Sindh.
Additionally, Sindh and Punjab governments announced major relief measures to cushion the impact of rising fuel prices, including cash subsidies for motorcyclists, support for farmers and transporters and free public transport services on intra-city routes.
