Pakistan ends 'luxury tax' on menstrual products, contraceptives. Will prices drop?
In Pakistan, taxes on menstrual products can add up. Activists have long worked to change this. Now a new budget wipes out the 18% sales tax. But questions remain about the impact on prices.
If removing this tax actually makes these essential products more accessible, thats a win for reproductive justice. But I wonder if the real change needs to be about education and destigmatization too.
