In a statement, Bahrain�s clerics described what the government has committed by lifting subsidies on meat, raising gasoline prices and promising to raise tariffs of electricity, water and other life necessities as �targeting citizens in the necessities of their life and restricting their livelihood.�

The Bahraini Member of Parliament Ahmed Qarata said that the government is leaning towards reducing the number of high-cost allowance beneficiaries in 2016.

Bahrain Mirror: The Bahraini Parliament sent an official address to the Prime Minister Khalifa bin Salman on Wednesday (August 26, 2015), calling for delaying the lift of subsidies on meat an additional month.
