MCI’s Weekly Bazaars will follow price list of ICT

ISLAMABAD: Weekly Bazaars being operated by the Metropolitan Corporation will follow the price lists of Islamabad District Magistrate. This administrative action will not only help provide different edible items on affordable rates but would also end confusion, replication and duplication of prices in the city.


This was decided after mutual consultation of Chief Officer MCI and Deputy Commissioner Islamabad that in future fruits, vegetables and other edible items would be sold in the weekly bazaar on the rates specified by the District magistrate. However, weekly bazaar administration will ensure implementation of the rates and availability of edible items in the weekly bazaars organized by the MCI. Implementation of unitary rates across the city will ultimately facilitate the residents.

Islamabad Capital Administration has taken several steps to ensure availability of edible items at affordable rates in the city. In this connection, instructions have been issued that artificial price hike would not be tolerated. Assistant Commissioners have been directed to regularly monitor and regulate the bidding process and set the retail rates of fruits vegetables accordingly.

Moreover, magistrates have been also directed to conduct visits of different markets of the city and take action against the profiteers.

Hello! My name is Farhan Abro, and I'm based here in Islamabad. My journey in Pakistan's digital media really kicked off when I founded INCPak back in 2012. We built it from the ground up, driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, to be a trusted voice for independent journalism. But while media is a big part of who I am, I'm also shaped by a fascinating mix of other passions. I'm deeply into automotive, which gives me a technical edge, but I also find my artistic expression through landscape photography and music. And I'm always diving into the exciting world of Artificial Intelligence. Bringing all these different worlds together the technical, the creative, the journalistic, and the entrepreneurial—it really colors how I see things and approach every project. It gives me a distinct perspective that I try to bring to everything I share
