Indian duty on Pakist­ani import­s result­s in cancel­lation of orders­LAHORE: The ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan have disrupted trade with trucks carrying cement, salt and dry fruit returning from the Wagah Border. Over one hundred trucks are also stranded at the Grand Trunk (GT) Road hoping for restoration of trade ties. This led to Indian traders cancelling their orders and refusing to buy cement, salt and dry fruits. Due to the cancellation, trucks carrying trade items have been recalled but around 100 trucks carrying cement and salt are still standing at the GT Road. He said that it put a halt to Indian import and cause difficulties for traders across the border.
