मुख्य बातें

  • Uganda's annual inflation rose to 5.8 percent in October 2026, up from 4.6 percent in September and the highest reading since June 2023, according to the Uganda Bureau of Statistics.
  • Food crop prices rose 10.7 percent from a year earlier, compared with 4.5 percent in September, and officials blamed the weaker Ugandan shilling and higher fuel prices.
  • The Bank of Uganda had already raised its key interest rate by 2.25 percentage points to 12 percent on 14 October, and the central bank also cut its growth forecast for 2026/27 to between 6 and 6.5 percent.
  • یوگنڈا کے ادارہ شماریات کے مطابق اکتوبر 2026 میں سالانہ مہنگائی 4.6 فیصد سے بڑھ کر 5.8 فیصد ہوگئی ہے، جو جون 2023 کے بعد سب سے زیادہ ہے۔ غذائی فصلوں کی قیمتیں ایک سال پہلے کے مقابلے میں 10.7 فیصد بڑھیں، جبکہ ستمبر میں یہ اضافہ 4.5 فیصد تھا، اور حکام نے یوگنڈا شلنگ کی کمزوری اور ایندھن کی زیادہ قیمتوں کو ذمہ دار ٹھہرایا ہے۔ یوگنڈا کے مرکزی بینک نے 14 اکتوبر کو اپنی اہم شرح سود 2.25 فیصد پوائنٹس بڑھا کر 12 فیصد کر دی تھی، اور 2026/27 کے لیے ترقی کی پیش گوئی بھی کم کر کے 6 سے 6.5 فیصد کر دی ہے۔
