Online auction system for cattle markets ready

The Punjab Local Government Department has launched an e-auction system for the leasing of cattle markets across the province ahead of Eidul Azha.

The Punjab Cattle Market Management and Development Company (PCMMDC) will oversee the implementation of the system, which will bring all 112 registered cattle markets in the province under a unified digital auction platform.

According to a spokesperson for the department, the move aims to ensure transparency, curb corruption and streamline the auction process through digital means. Online registration for contractors is under way.
