What could be described as a weird incident, a man in Upper Kohistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) filed an application in a police station against Rs10 increase in the price of Niswar in the area, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Friday.

In his application, the man requested for an action against the shopkeepers for increasing price of the commodity from Rs10 to Rs20.

It is an open secret that Niswar is quite popular with members of the Pakhtun community living in Pakistan, Afghanistan and even India. So much so that it is said that they cannot even live without it.
