ISLAMABAD: The federal cabinet Tuesday approved record Rs7.8 billion package for the upcoming holy month of Ramazan. Addressing the media after the cabinet meeting, Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry provided details of the decisions taken at the meeting. He said Prime Minister Imran Khan had personally been monitoring the prices of daily-use items and all possible steps were being taken to provide relief to the common man. About the cabinet approval of issuance of licences to a few ones, including Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar, the minister said there had to be a policy on the matter; therefore, the cabinet had asked the Ministry of Interior to come up with a policy on issuance of licences, ensuring whosoever deserved, should get arms licences. And, he added, hopefully, in the next few weeks, a policy will be finalised in that context. About a report on oil marketing companies (OMCs), he said that things would move forward, once the report was sent to the agencies concerned.
