ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani on Saturday took a serious note of media reports about the hike in sugar price and directed the finance minister to immediately convene a meeting of the committee on sugar.
He directed the minister to come up with recommendations to ensure easy availability of the commodity at reasonable rates throughout the country.
Sugar price have soared up to Rs80 per kg in last one week and its price hike is escalating on daily basis after reports of serious shortage of the commodity due to sharp decline in sugar-cane production this year. The sugar millers express the fear that it may go up to Rs90 per kg by end of the crushing season. — Ahmad Hassan.
