The holy month


People have started performing their religious rituals maintaining the sanctity of the holy month of Ramadan. But they are already in the unholy grip of the malicious business syndicates that are holding the nation hostage in many ways.

Prices of essentials that include the most common items of foods along with some more are already spiralling high. People are stumbling at almost every turn of their life, as there are problems that are already prevalent in the societyacute electricity shortage, price hike and the cumulative crisis in the political arena.

With the general elections in sight, the month of holy Ramadan will be a tougher time. We earnestly urge all the political parties not to take measures that might taint the sanctity of this month.
