Petrol prices in Pakistan have soared to PKR 458 per litre, a significant increase that reflects the ongoing global energy crisis exacerbated by geopolitical tensions.
The rise in fuel prices has sparked concern among citizens and public figures alike. Former cricket star Shahid Afridi has voiced his apprehension regarding the impact of these rising costs on everyday life in Pakistan.
