The article focused on Tehran Municipality's efforts to support residents through the implementation of several development and livelihood initiatives, including making public transportation free, launching housing projects such as "Small House," freezing the prices of 12 basic commodities for six months, and introducing the "Motherhood Package" to support new mothers. Despite these policies aimed at easing burdens and increasing family welfare, doubts are raised about the sources of funding and their ability to curb inflation, which reached 90% in the previous month and registered an annual 108.8% increase in food prices. Criticisms highlight that freezing some prices does not offset the rising costs of other essentials like rent and medicine, and are seen as part of short-term policies that may lead to lack of transparency and a duality of responsibilities between the government and the municipality. Discussions emphasize the need for radical measures such as controlling liquidity and reducing fiscal deficits to achieve genuine sustainability.
