Punjab's Chief Minister Salma Butt has initiated early price monitoring ahead of Ramadan. At a performance review meeting, she directed authorities to start preparations from October to track supply, demand, stocks, and prices of essential commodities. Butt emphasized the need to enhance cold storage capacity to ensure sufficient stocks of apples, dates, gram, bananas, and other necessities.
The meeting discussed price-control measures, enforcement operations, and the overall supply situation. The district food controller provided an update on available wheat and flour stocks, as well as the functioning of mills. To improve price monitoring, a digital application has been introduced, and officials have been instructed to post inspection and enforcement records promptly. Strict adherence to officially notified price lists remains a priority.
