The Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) of the Cabinet has approved a supplementary grant of Rs6.6 billion to purchase 30 bulletproof vehicles for the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in September 2027. This decision was made during a meeting chaired by Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb, which also allowed continuation of gas supply to two Punjab-based fertiliser plants due to the shortage of imported liquefied natural gas.
The meeting, which discussed a variety of proposals including tobacco crop prices and cess rates revisions, deferred other agenda items for further justification and resubmission.
