A reduction in the quantity of wheat released by government warehouses is being blamed for the price hike by flour millers. According to the former chairman of the PFMA, Khaleeq Arshad, Pakistan has been importing wheat from Ukraine for the past few years. However, the war in Ukraine affected the supply line, bringing the quantity of grains in the market way short of the demand for them. EPA/NADEEM KHAWAR
