RAWALPINDI, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 10th Oct, 2021 ) :Commissioner Rawalpindi Division Syed Gulzar Hussain Shah directed the officials concerned to set up Deputy Commissioner(DC) counters at all major mega stores in the division to ensure the provision of daily use items to residents on official rates.
According to Commissioner office spokesman, Gulzar said that no one would be allowed to visit the vegetable and fruit markets and inspect the bidding process other than the deputy commissioners, assistant commissioners and price control magistrates of the areas.
He directed the officials to set up markets on the pattern of Sasta bazaars along with all wholesale markets so that the people could benefit from government-subsidized flour, sugar and other commodities.
