Milk, yogurt sold above official rates in Lahore amid weak enforcement

Lahore: The sale of milk and yogurt above officially notified prices has raised concerns across the city, highlighting weak enforcement by the district administration. While the government rate for milk is set at Rs 170 per kg, it is being sold between Rs 200 and Rs 240 in various areas. Similarly, yogurt is available at Rs 260 to Rs 280 per kg, exceeding official limits. Citizens have reported the absence of displayed price lists and ineffective monitoring by price control authorities, allowing shopkeepers to charge arbitrary rates. Public complaints have increased as consumers face financial strain due to overpricing. Residents have urged authorities to conduct daily inspections and take strict action against violators to ensure fair pricing.
