It is unfortunate that inflation in the country is increasing due to which general public is greatly disturbed. The continuous inflation shows that Price Control Authority is not actively working due to which traders from top to bottom are selling commodities at monopolistic prices.

Needless to mention here that uncontrollable inflation has ruined the lives of poor people. At a time when the government is promising to give maximum relief to the poor, there is no justification to allow any increase in the prices of commodities. The government is earnestly requested to curb the current inflationary trend and take appropriate measures to improve the standard of living of the common man who is struggling hard to survive.
