On February 16, 2026, the federal government of Pakistan increased petrol prices by Rs5 per liter and diesel prices by Rs7.32 per liter. This decision has drawn criticism from the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), which described the hike as a 'petrol bomb' impacting the public just before the holy month of Ramazan.
