A vendor sells fruit at his shop on a road side in Karachi, Pakistan, 02 August 2023. Pakistan recently announced a significant increase in petrol and diesel prices to meet fiscal objectives outlined in a deal with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Petrol prices rose by 19.95 Pakistani rupees to 272.95 rupees per litre, while diesel prices increased by 19.90 rupees to 273.40 rupees per litre, a 7.8 percent increase for both fuels. This comes as the country grapples with sky-high inflation, with the Consumer Price Index rising to 28.3 percent in July year-on-year.
