ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister’s Special Relief Scheme has been successfully rolled out across Pakistan, with petrol being provided at a subsidized rate of Rs100 per liter under the scheme. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is personally monitoring every aspect of the relief scheme and has directed that its outreach must be further expanded. He has also instructed the relevant authorities to ensure that the petrol subsidy is provided to beneficiaries with dignity, convenience and without any hurdles. In the light of feedback received from across the country, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif took another important decision to further facilitate beneficiaries of the scheme. “Upon the prime minister’s instructions, motorcyclists, as well as owners of Qingqi and rickshaws who purchase less than five litres of petrol, will also be entitled to a discount of Rs 500 against a single token within a week,” PM Office Media Wing, Saturday, said in a press release.
