Lahore: The Lahore High Court (LHC) Thursday gave a reserved verdict in the case related to fixing the prices of sugar.
According to details, a two-member bench headed by Justice Shahid Karim of Lahore High Court gave a pre-emptive verdict on the petition related to fixing the price of sugar.
The court declared invalid the notification of Federal Secretary Controller General Price to fix the price of sugar and ordered that the Punjab government will fix the price of sugar in the province.

It should be noted that the sugar mill owners had challenged the federal government's move to set sugar prices, on which the Lahore High Court had suspended the ongoing notification regarding sugar prices.
