LAHORE – Punjab CM Buzdar on Monday gave a green signal for the establishment of Sahulat Bazaars in more cities after Lahore.
Govt set the model Bazar to relieve the masses suffering inflation amid pandemic.
In a statement, the Chief Minister said that six ‘Sahulat Bazaars’ have already been set up in Lahore where wheat flour and other essential commodities are available at notified rates.
