The loss of Rs 404 billion has been revealed to the country and the people due to the incompetence of the government. The government claims to pay the most attention to sugar and wheat but the most mismanagement is also seen in these two commodities. As a result, a total of Rs 404 billion has been vaccinated so far.
According to an investigation by a private TV program, the government has lost Rs 184 billion due to the non-implementation of government decisions, while wheat has lost Rs 220 billion due to high prices and failure to make timely decisions. Due to untimely decision, wheat crisis came in the country and at present the price of flour in the country is at a historic level.
The continuous rise in prices has placed an additional burden of Rs 205 billion on consumers. The annual per capita consumption of wheat in Pakistan is about 124 kg, ie the per capita monthly consumption of wheat is more than 10 kg and the population of Pakistan is 22 crore. In October 2018, the price of one kg of flour was Rs. 39.25, which in October 2019 increased to Rs. 46.25.
