MULTAN:
Deputy Director Food Department Adnan Badar said that flour was available at 1,260 shops and sales points and debunked conjecture about a flour shortage in the division.
As per SOPs (standard operating procedures), the government provided 120,000 bags of wheat to 63 flour mills. The supply of wheat has been enhanced and in Bahawalpur, 200 sales points are providing 140,000 bags of flour to the public.
