The rising tide of inflation in Quetta has not stopped, which has made it difficult for the poor to make ends meet. At the retail shops, including the market, different types of pulses started selling at Rs. 20 to 50 per kg, ghee at Rs. 350 and a 20 kg bag of flour at Rs.
In the city, the price of chicken has gone up from Rs. 400 to Rs. 480, peas from Rs. 300 per kg, tomatoes from Rs. 100 to Rs.
Citizens complain that, on the one hand, inflation and, on the other hand, great selling has made life difficult. Therefore, the district administration should activate inactive price control committees and a crackdown on big sellers to get some relief.
