The ongoing protests by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have led to the closure of highways, causing significant disruption in the supply chain of vegetables and fruits to local markets.
The road blockages have severely impacted the transportation of fresh produce, leading to a spike in prices.
Citizens report that the cost of vegetables and fruits has surged, making essential items less affordable for many.
Market vendors attribute the increase in prices to supply shortages caused by the restricted movement of goods.
The disruption is expected to persist as long as the protests and road closures continue, adding to the concerns of residents already grappling with inflation.
Efforts to restore the supply chain remain uncertain as the protests show no signs of abating.
