A colourful ceremony was held at the Pak-Afghan border at Torkham and attended by a large number of Pakistani and Afghan officials.

Hundreds of citizens of both the countries were also present on the occasion.

The National Logistic Cell (NLC) General Manager Mazhar Iqbal led the Pakistani side while Afghanistan’s agriculture ministry official Ghulam Farooq headed the Afghan delegation at the ceremony.

Talking to The News, NLC General Manager Mazhar Iqbal said that Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi had promised the Afghan government that Pakistan would gift 40,000 tonnes wheat as a goodwill gesture.

He said the total price of the wheat in open market is Rs4 billion. He added Pakistan would send the gifted wheat to Afghanistan in the next few months.

Afghan official Ghulam Farooq thanked Pakistan and its citizens for helping the Afghans at this critical time.

He said the wheat would be distributed among the deserving people in Afghanistan. “We thank Pakistan for the gift. It will help improve our relations,” he added

Since your brain refused to process the question properly, I simply asked, if there was to be shortage of Wheat in the country, why did they export extra stock?

The demand is touching 4 Million tons this year, and we have also exported wheat this fiscal year already.

Bad management, or incompetency, your pick.

First export a commodity by creating favourable condition for export. Then create shortage of that commodity in country. And finally import same commodity back to fight that manufactured shortage. Who benefits in this whole saga ?

Whom should we blame for this criminal neglect this time? Merely suspending some random edo agriculture and food doesn't redeem the corrupt practices of government ministers. Did he take any action against the people who actually matter?

So IK being PM couldnt stop this? He seems to stop whatever else from the previous governments he wants, why not this?
