feel the best way to fight price rise is by refusing to pay more whenever possible. Inflation is only partly in the control of the Govt. and only partly due to foreign factors. The merchants and the middle men also play a significant role by affecting the supply-demand balance and raising prices just because everyone else is doing so and talking about it. Do your part to control this menace. Next time you have a choice to avoid buying something at higher than usual prices, do so. I bet the prices will come down on their own.
