Inflation and liberlisation

Inflation is nothing but continuous rise in prices of required commodities which result in reduction of purchasing power of the consumer. We have no remedy to control inflation. It is only government whose unwise policies results in rise in prices.

Businessmen want to earn more and more profit. Even government owned PSU's are targeted to earn maximum profit. This profit eats away the hard earned money of general mass.

Inflation causes pain to poor and middle class people. Rich people are least bothered whatsoever may be the prices. Corrupt officers are also not affected by inflation.

Poor general mass has one and only one remedy to fight with inflation is to reduce the expenses and make effort to increase the earnings. The worst sufferers are pension earners and those whose income are very low and have no scope to increase in old age.

What is the solution for unbridled price rise is a billion dollar question. Now ministers are blaming global crisis which is unacceptable .It is not that Inflation is invincible. It needs strong will of the government to deal with those businessmen who are hoarding essential commodities and charging exorbitant rates. On the pretext of globalization, liberalization and privatization our rulers have given freehand to traders and big shots to exploit illiterate and poor mass of the country.

It is worthwhile to mention here that during BJP rule or erstwhile Janta Party rule there was full control on price rise and general mass were happy. But unfortunately on the plea of secularism Congress party and other so called secular party are giving enormous trouble to Aam Admi of the country.


Even in the matter of safety and security of Indian people our present government failed completely to deal with sternly with terrorist only to appease Muslims. Whenever there is terror attack or naxal attacks they blame BJP. Congress Party has lame excuse in their almirah to shut the mouth of BJP because during the regime of NDA terrorist attacked Parliament. They forget that BJP framed POTA to fight with terrorists which Congress Party and UPA abandoned just to appease Muslims.

Similarly BJP minister took hardcore terrorist to Kandhar for release of hostages and on this plea Congress Party has stayed the execution of Afzal Guru who is sentenced to death by Supreme Court.

Political parties have to discard blame game in the interest of Nation on the issues which pertain to welfare of Indian mass, it may be the problem of safety or survival of general mass. It may be inflation or terror attack.

It is painful that our leaders talk more, work less. They plan the best but fail in execution on all fronts. Real solution lies in long term policy with future vision to combat all ills of the society and all dangers to the nation.
