GILGIT: Pakistan Customs collected a record Rs1.88 billion in revenue from Sost Dry Port during October — the highest monthly collection in the port’s history — following the resumption of trade between Pakistan and China through the Khunjerab Pass.
According to Customs officials, trade activity at the border post has returned to full swing after being suspended for several months due to a protest by Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) traders. The strike ended in the last week of September following an agreement between a committee formed by the prime minister and representatives of the GB traders’ association.
