The notification said the decision had been taken in the national interest and to “provide relief to the public.” “The government is prioritizing relief for the citizens instead of passing on the impact of global inflationary pressures,” an Urdu version of the statement read. “The additional burden of higher prices, as suggested by OGRA, which would have been transferred to the citizenry, will instead be borne by the government,” it added.
