Federal Minister Ahad Cheema chaired a high-level meeting, affirming the government's commitment to ensuring adequate supplies of wheat and petroleum products across Pakistan. Provinces reported normal demand-supply but may need federal assistance for future wheat requirements from PASSCO stocks.

This focus on domestic supply stability and inflation control could support the Pakistani Rupee, potentially easing pressure on USD/PKR rates and indirectly influencing local gold prices.
