·The Hindu·Impact 4/5 · High

Pakistan has reopened the Gabd-Rimdan border crossing with Iran after a week-long suspension of trade. This move is expected to ease the shortage of LPG, a key fuel source, and subsequently reduce food and energy prices in the country. The resumption of trade will also have a positive impact on the economy, as it will help to increase the supply of essential goods and reduce the burden on consumers. The easing of prices will likely have a positive effect on the overall economic situation in Pakistan.
