QUETTA: With Eid just round the corner, prices of vegetables have sky-rocketed—with tomatoes taking the top slot.
Tomatoes are being sold for Rs200, a Rs 100 hike. Meanwhile lemons are being sold for Rs150 per kilo.
Green chilies are being sold for Rs100 a kilo.
Citizens complained that it is a yearly routine that before Eid, shopkeepers increase the prices of fruit and vegetables which is unwarranted.
Despite a price list issued for Ramazan, there is blatant violation of the rule.
