Snuff prices have also gone up in view of rising inflation in the country.
An interesting incident in this regard took place in Upper Kohistan district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa where a citizen went to the office of the District Police Officer (DPO) complaining that snuff was expensive. The citizen filed a petition against expensive snuff and low weight in which he took the position that daily use items are becoming more expensive but how did snuff become expensive?
However, the Assistant Commissioner did not reduce the snuff but increased the weight of the padia.
