LAHORE – The chicken prices declined i the local markets of Lahore and other cities, the Pakistan Poultry Association said on Tuesday.

Chicken meat currently is being sold at Rs470 per kg, marking a reduction of Rs78 per kg.

Besides it, the price of chicks also decreased, now standing at Rs100 compared to the earlier Rs220.

Responding to the situation, Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has pledged to take action against those exploiting consumers through inflated chicken prices.
