Spurt in food prices can seriously hurt us: Manmohan
by Hebbar R on Apr 10, 2008 07:10 PM

When will these bigwigs of economics stop looking at the macro-level and start looking at the micro level. 8% or 80% growth in the economy is of consequence to a person who is unable to make end meet. Nor, to the scores of farmers who are committing suicides.

The PM has made some good comments as mentioned in the last para of this news post. But, pray what has his Govt done to implement these very suggestions? Contrary to his own suggestion, his Govt has only doled out a Loan waiver but done nothing to improve the income of the farmers.
