In Lahore, there’s been a standoff between oven owners and the government regarding the reduction of bread prices.
Tandoor owners are adamant about not selling bread for less than 15 rupees, citing increased costs. The Punjab government has mandated prices of 14 rupees for bread and 20 rupees for naan, but tandoors are selling roti for 15 rupees, naan for 25 rupees, and kalcha for 30 rupees. Complaints about inflated prices are widespread among citizens and authorities are monitoring the situation to ensure compliance with government-set rates.
