controlling inflation
by Rajasekaran on Apr 02, 2008 10:30 AM

All these measure are just eyewash. It is well known fact that prices of steel, cement and sugar will increease before general elections. Because the manufacturers of these commodities have to give hefty sums to political parties (both ruling and opposition) for election expenses. In turn they are allowed to increase the prices to make up the expenditure. It is a tacit understanding between all political parties and manufacturing associations. All these meetings are just drama.
