AAP Leader & Social Activist Gurmeet Singh Baaghi criticized central government for rising of prices of essentials commodities continuously. The Government has giving new year gift to the people of country by hiking commercial cooking gas of Rs. 25. The prices of all the essential commodities have skyrocketed. The prices of essential commodities are increasing with every passing day as the Government are failed to control it. Price hike of Commodities of daily use is very unfortunate for people belonging to lower and middle class. The uncontrolled hike in the prices of the essential commodities has added a heavy burden to the common people. Country never seen this type of situation ever before. Inflation is one of the major problems of the common man with the prices of commodities of the daily use soaring high. Inflation had made the common man very difficult and the worst thing is when the food items get dearer, one is compelled to stretch oneself beyond one’s capacity to the necessities to one’s family. In such circumstances the poor continue in their state of poverty but the repercussions on the middle class are high in the form of their meagre saving or even incurring debts. The worst hit is the fixed income groups like salaried people, labour class, traders, small business owners, pensioners etc. For them even the commodities of basic necessities like wheat, pulses, grains, vegetables etc are getting out of reach. Every increase in price disturbs their budgets. Inflation of food prices directly impacts the quality of nutrition available and hence the health of the human resource of the nation with a major chunk of the family income, being used up to run the kitchen. There is a severe cut down on the fund available for other important functions like the education of the children. The government has on several occasions pointed to the international rates of crude oil when questioned about the fuel & Gas price hike. Now the international rates have dropped then why the rates have not been slashed ?.
Baaghi said that this is the Government responsibility to ensure availability of essential commodities at cheaper rates and the government should make arrangement for supply of these items. This increase in price is causing anxiety amongst the people of India. Prices of everything are sky-rocketing, even of the essential commodities like gas, pulses, sugar, edible oil, tea, food grains, petrol etc. Price rise affects different people differently. Poor people who are unable to purchase even essential commodities due to the sky rocketing rise of prices. The government failed to control the inflation and the Government did not take any concrete action to control inflation. People from all walks of society are unhappy with the performance of the Government. The Central Government must present a roadmap for tackling price of essential commodities.
