Pakistan's Punjab province recorded 4.2 times more fire hotspots than India's Punjab, according to Dawn.

Dawn reports that the region's agricultural practices and climate conditions contribute to the spike in crop-fire detections.

Meanwhile, Pakistan's Chief Minister Maryam has launched a Rs2 trillion PIVOT initiative to boost industry and exports, per Dawn.
