Islamabad: On Wednesday, following the hike in the prices of petroleum products in the country, Federal Minister for Science and Technology Shibli Faraz has advised the public to use “as little fuel as possible”. “The prices of the fuel in the international market have reached up to $95,” he told, asserting that the government had not imposed taxes on the fuel prices in a bid to give “relief” to the masses. Faraz also added that “life cannot be normal during these tough times as inflation and COVID-19 are global issues.”
