Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif made announcement amid widespread speculations that the government would reduce fuel prices due to fluctuations in global oil prices and import premiums. However, the government opted not to cut prices and instead focused on maintaining fuel price stability.
As fuel prices would remain stable, the government is reportedly working on a package to cut electricity prices. The government intends to use the financial benefits created by the difference in global oil prices to pass on relief to the public through lower electricity tariffs. A comprehensive relief package is expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
