Pakistan: 47,000 Sacks Of Wheat Worth PKR 800 Million Missing

As many as 47,000 wheat sacks have gone missing from the government’s warehouse in Sindh’s Khairpur district. The wheat sacks were worth Pakistan currency (PKR) 800 million which were produced by the Sindh government.

Taking action on the matter, the Sindh Food Department has suspended three food officers. Suspended officials include the district food controller, food supervisor, and food inspector.

As per reports, this is not the first time that wheat stocked at the government warehouses in Sindh has gone missing.

In 2022, thousands of metric tons of wheat vanished from Sindh government warehouses in Naushehro Feroze.

Earlier on 20 March, the Sindh cabinet decided to set the wheat procurement target at 900,000 tonnes. The meeting was held at the CM House.
