Punjab Information Minister Azma Bokhari claimed on Saturday that the prices of fruit and vegetable slashed.
In a statement, Bokhari said: "The prices of onions, tomatoes, and potatoes have been dropped by Rs29, Rs24 and Rs22 respectively. The remaining vegetables have also witnessed a decrease in prices by up to Rs 20."
"The prices of fruits are also witnessing a decrease. The decrease in prices is the result of the best performance by all the district administrations of Punjab," she added.
Bokhari maintained: "The price control magistrate and teams have been mobilised across the province. It is the biggest of all the tasks to implement on the government rate list."
She said: "All the DC, AC, and commissioners visit the markets on a daily basis. It is the mission of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz to provide cheap roti and vegetables to the masses. Maryam Nawaz represents people in general."
"The masses have given us the mandate to address their problems. We will fulfil the expectations of the masses," Bokhari maintained.
