Flour price hiked across Punjab

Price of flour has gone up in open market across Punjab with a 20kg bag will now be available for nearly Rs1,800, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

A bag of 20kg flour which was being sold at Rs1,730 previously will now be available for Rs1,770 after an increase of Rs40 in the rate.

Punjab Flour Mills Association said in a statement released on Saturday that increase in flour price is essential as price of wheat is also increased so we have to enhance price of flour in Pakistan particularly in Punjab.
