As soon as the holy month of Ramadan comes, the prices of all edible things are increased across Pakistan and especially in Balochistan. Even non-Muslim countries such as Germany have decreased the price of all edible products so that the Muslim could benefit.
Due to skyrocketing prices, a large number of under-privileged people are compelled to break their fast with only water and dates. It is in stark violation of fundamental rights of the people in the country.
The government should direct the authorities concerned to take punitive and stringent measures against such shopkeepers who are responsible for inflation.
