Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Governor Faisal Karim Kundi on Monday sought Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s intervention to lift the “unconstitutional” restrictions on the supply of wheat to the province. In a letter to the prime minister, Kundi raised concerns over the restrictions on the supply to KP, which, he said, was a wheat-deficient province and depended “substantially on inter-provincial inflows” to meet its requirements. Terming the restrictions unconstitutional, the KP governor said that Article 151 of the Constitution guaranteed freedom of trade among the provinces.
