High fares

Author: Daily Times

Sir Pakistan has a broad middle class section in its population spread. These people usually travel by public transport to save money for other smaller but useful luxuries. The recent price hike in petroleum products has shot up the fares of public transport as well, putting a dent in our pockets. I study in Karachi University and spend Rs 60 daily on transport. It is my humble request to the government to decrease the rate of fares so that a student can easily study without having a burden of heavy fares.
