LAHORE, Apr 09 (APP):Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif has approved the deregulation of wheat and the introduction of a free market policy.
Under the new directive, there will be no restrictions on the inter-provincial transportation of wheat from Punjab, allowing farmers to secure competitive prices for their produce.
