The forum also noted that high import of vaccine contributed significantly to the rise in import bill.
Moreover, it was informed that there will be less import of food items, furnace oil and vaccine in the coming months that will significantly reduce the pressure on trade bill in the second half of the current fiscal year.
At the conclusion, the Adviser to the PM on Finance and Revenue advised the concerned authorities to take effective policy measures to reduce unnecessary imports of luxury items.
