Private imports of wheat not allowed: Pakistan PM

We have sufficient stock of wheat and we will not allow the private imports of the commodity, said Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Thursday.

His statement came a day after European traders stated that the Pakistan government has issued a tender to purchase and import 500,000 tonnes of wheat.

PM’s office issued a statement stating that the government will import wheat at a cheap rate and ensure that it is supplied to consumers at an affordable rate.
