The All Pakistan Goods Transporters Association has announced a 10% reduction in freight charges across the country following a Rs. 32 per liter cut in diesel prices.
Association President Nabeel Mahmood Tariq welcomed the government’s decision, saying the reduction in fuel prices would lower the cost of transporting commercial goods.
He said the move would also provide some relief to the transport industry, which has faced growing operating costs due to fluctuations in fuel prices.
The association’s decision to reduce freight rates is expected to lower transportation expenses for businesses and traders and could eventually provide some relief to consumers if lower logistics costs are reflected in the prices of goods.
Tariq urged the government to maintain the current reduction in diesel prices for at least one week so that transporters and the public can benefit from the lower fuel costs.
The announcement comes as fuel prices remain a major factor affecting the cost of freight transportation across Pakistan. Diesel is widely used by commercial trucks and other heavy vehicles, making changes in its price directly relevant to the country’s logistics and supply chain costs.
