Hyderabad, In the wake of the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Domor policy’s implementation, citizens across Pakistan, particularly in Hyderabad, are experiencing exacerbated hardships with the advent of Ramadan, facing severe disruptions in electricity, gas, and water supply. Dr. Muhammad Yunus Danish, the main spokesperson for Jamiat Ulema Pakistan, emphasized the acute challenges faced by residents, highlighting that the policy changes coincide with a significant period of religious observance, thereby intensifying the difficulties for the fasting populace.

According to Jamiat Ulema Islam, the implementation of the IMF Domor policy, aimed at escalating the costs of electricity, gas, and petrol starting Monday, has sparked significant distress among Hyderabad’s residents. Dr. Danish elaborated on the plight of the citizens, noting that the absence of basic amenities has led to severe inconveniences during Ramadan, with the unavailability of gas affecting meals at critical times, such as during Sehri and Iftar. The spokesperson criticized the government’s approach, pointing out the absence of effective price control and the resultant escalation in food prices, which have placed essential commodities beyond the reach of many.

The statement further underscored the irony of the nation’s abundant natural resources, contrasting this wealth with the government’s policies that have resulted in increased load shedding and inflated prices, thereby exacerbating the populace’s challenges during a month of significant religious significance. The call to action highlighted the need for governmental accountability and the provision of basic amenities to ensure the citizens’ ability to observe Ramadan with dignity.

As the statement concluded, it emphasized the potential for public unrest and the dire implications for the ruling authorities if the current trajectory of policy and governance continues unaddressed. The mention of potential civil disobedience and electoral repercussions serves as a stark warning of the growing dissatisfaction among the populace.
