High LPG, milk prices in Chitral

Report Bashir Hussain Azad, Chitral


After the shortage of one an half month, LPG and milk are again available in Chitral bazaar. According to the dealers, they have arranged gas and milk through Afghanistan roads. The LPG is being sold at Rs130/kg whereas the market rate of LPG in Peshawar an other areas is about Rs80/kg. Similarly, milk is being sold at Rs80/litre instead of Rs60/litre. Because of the cold weather and load shedding the common man has no option but to rush to the LPG shops for filling their cylinders.

Local administration didn’t take any action against these high prices of LPG and milk.
