The Consumers Association of Penang (CAP) has proposed that the government organize a Madani Rahmah sale in conjunction with the upcoming Deepavali celebrations. This initiative is aimed at easing the financial burden on the Indian community as they prepare for the festive season.
According to CAP, the Madani Rahmah sale would enable Hindus to purchase essential goods at cheaper and more accessible prices. This proposal is part of CAP’s efforts to support the community in managing their expenses during the festive period.
The suggestion has been made to the government to facilitate these sales, which would help in reducing the financial strain on the public. CAP believes that such an initiative would be beneficial in ensuring that the community can celebrate Deepavali without undue financial hardship.
The idea of holding a Madani Rahmah sale is not new, but its implementation ahead of Deepavali is seen as a timely measure to support the community. The sales are expected to offer a range of essential items at discounted prices, making it easier for people to prepare for the festivities.
