Why the Ramzan Relief Package Matters in 2026
With record inflation and the average price of essentials like flour, sugar, and cooking oil increasing by nearly 26% since last year, families are feeling pushed to the edge.“Last year, we barely managed Sehri meals. This relief will let us provide basic dignity to our children,” says Asma, a mother of five from Larkana.
The government responded by raising the package allocation by 200% compared to 2025, with over PKR 20 billion now reserved to support more than 4 million families across Sindh.
