Govt announces new prices of petroleum products for fortnight

ISLAMABAD: The federal government announced on Friday new prices of petroleum products for a fortnight, which will be effective from August 1.

Taking to Twitter, Dr Shahbaz Gill, the special assistant to the PM on political affairs, said the government is going to jack up the price of petrol by Rs1.71 per litre.
