On Monday, Pakistan's Finance Minister Mifta Ismail told the media that his country may consider importing vegetables and other food items from India to help people deal with the widespread destruction of crops in flash floods.

We have to dedicate our meager resources to reducing poverty in our respective countries, but we cannot live peacefully without solving these issues.

Torrential rains have killed more than 1,000 people in Pakistan, where nearly half a million people are in relief camps. Officials estimate more than $10 billion in damage. The country now faces an imminent food crisis with massive agricultural land under water.

 

On Wednesday, Ismail said that international agencies have approached the country's government to allow imports from India through the land border, however, the Pakistan government after consultations with its coalition partners and key stakeholders has been short of supplies. It can be considered only after assessing the situation.

 

“More than one international agency has approached the government for allowing food items to be brought in from India through the land border. The government, after consulting its coalition partners and key stakeholders, has approached the government based on the situation of supply shortfalls. decide whether to allow it or not.
