Pakistan Food Crisis: Pakistan, which is facing floods and a food crisis, will once again start trade with India. This has been announced by the Finance Minister of Pakistan Miftah Ismail. Mifta Ismail said, "Due to this flood and rise in food prices, we will open trade routes with India."
Pakistan's Finance Minister Mifta Ismail told the media today that the government may consider importing vegetables and other food items from India for the convenience of the people due to the destruction of crops due to the recent floods. According to Radio Pakistan, while holding a press conference in Islamabad, Mifta Ismail has given this answer in response to a question.
Efforts to start a business with India being made for a long time
Sources have been quoted as saying that Pakistan's former security adviser Moeed Yusuf was working on some proposals regarding trade with India. At the same time, Razak Dawood, former commerce adviser of Pakistan, has also advocated for the resumption of trade with India on several occasions.
In March 2021, Pakistan's Economic Coordination Committee said that it would allow the country's private sector to import 0.5 million tonnes of white sugar and cotton from India through the Wagah border. However, this decision was overruled within a few days. This decision was opposed by the PMLN and the PPP, which are currently running a coalition government in Pakistan.
Vegetable prices skyrocketing in Pakistan
Let us tell you that the price of Pakistani vegetables is touching the sky. In the market of Lahore, onion is being sold at Rs 500 per kg and tomato at Rs 400 per kg. Food prices are expected to rise further in the coming days as the supply of vegetables from Balochistan, Sindh, and South Punjab has been badly hit due to floods.
At present, onions and tomatoes are being supplied from Afghanistan to the cities of Lahore and Punjab. This is being supplied through the Torkham limit. Earlier, Lahore Market Committee secretary Shahzad Cheema had also said that the government can import onions and tomatoes from India.
