KARACHI: The price of bread has increased in various parts of the city following a sharp rise in flour prices<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to reports, after a Rs400 increase in the price of a 20-kilogram flour bag, bread previously being sold at the official rate of Rs14 is now being sold for Rs20 in different areas.<\/p>\n

Bakers say the rising costs of LPG, flour, and other operational expenses have made it impossible to sell bread at the government-approved price.<\/p>\n

President of the Naan Roti Association, Aftab Aslam Gul, said bakers were compelled to increase prices as they could no longer manage expenses while selling bread for Rs14.<\/p>\n

He stated that the association had submitted several applications to the authorities regarding the issue but had received no response.<\/p>\n

Aftab Aslam Gul demanded that the official price of bread should be revised to Rs. 20 in order to establish a clear and workable policy for both bakers and consumers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
