On February 17, 2026, the Sindh Assembly unanimously passed two significant resolutions aimed at improving conditions during Ramazan. The first resolution, moved by MQM-P lawmaker Muhammad Mazahir, calls for uninterrupted gas supply during Sehri and Iftar, crucial times for fasting Muslims. Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon confirmed that the government supports the resolution, stating, 'The government does not oppose it, terming it a positive step.' Additionally, the assembly adopted a second resolution proposed by PPP MPA Sumeta Afzal Syed to increase insurance compensation for accidental deaths from Rs100,000 to Rs500,000. This decision reflects a collective agreement on enhancing social safety nets, with Memon noting that the provincial government has already communicated with federal authorities regarding the gas supply issue.
