flag Pakistan freezes fuel prices on March 13, 2026, to shield citizens amid global oil rises and economic instability.

flag Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has announced that Pakistan will not raise petroleum prices as of March 13, 2026, despite rising global oil costs, maintaining current rates to ease financial strain on citizens. flag The decision, aimed at protecting low-income households, follows a pledge to uphold fiscal discipline, implement austerity measures, and prevent price gouging. flag Federal and provincial governments are cooperating to enforce fixed prices and ensure stable supply, with sufficient crude oil reserves secured through diplomatic efforts. flag The government cited regional tensions and global economic instability as challenges but emphasized ongoing cost-cutting, including a reduced workweek and reduced spending among elites. flag No immediate price hikes are planned, though future adjustments remain possible if international conditions worsen.
