Chicken, Egg, Onion Prices Skyrocket In Cash-Strapped Pakistan

The price per dozen eggs has reportedly reached PKR 400 in Lahore, while the chicken is being sold at PKR 615 per kg there.

The price of eggs in Pakistan has soared to 400 Pakistani Rupees (PKR) per dozen in Punjab's provincial capital of Lahore, ARY News reported, citing market sources on Sunday.

This comes as the local administration has failed to enforce the government rate list as the prices of most commodities are skyrocketing.

The report added that onions are being sold for between 230 and 250 PKR per kg against the government's fixed rate of PKR 175 per kg.
