Quetta (ANN): The holy month of Ramadan has brought additional challenges for residents of Quetta as prices of everyday essentials continue to rise. Local markets have reported noticeable increases in the cost of fruits, vegetables, meat, and other basic commodities, causing concern among citizens.
Shoppers expressed disappointment, noting that during Ramadan, prices are expected to remain stable to ease the financial burden on families. However, the ongoing surge in prices has significantly impacted household budgets.
Residents urged the authorities to ensure strict enforcement of government-set price lists and to take decisive action against hoarders and profiteers. They emphasized that such measures are essential to provide genuine relief to the common people and uphold fairness in the market.
The growing concern over price hikes highlights the need for vigilant monitoring and prompt administrative action to protect consumers during the sacred month.
