The rising cost of living has become one of the most pressing concerns for ordinary citizens. Prices of essential commodities, including food items, electricity and fuel continue to increase, placing a heavy burden on low- and middle-income families. Many people are struggling to manage their daily expenses while their incomes remain unchanged. Inflation not only affects household budgets but also creates stress and uncertainty about the future.

Students, labourers and salaried individuals are all feeling the impact. The situation calls for effective measures to control prices and provide relief to the public. The authorities concerned should take practical steps to stabilise the market and ensure that basic necessities remain affordable for ordinary people.
