The challenges of price hike and rising inflation appear to be formidable. The government is still clueless insofar as the solutions to these problems are concerned. The adviser to finance appears to have done little or nothing to bring about a marked change in the current situation. The upcoming ‘mini-budget’ will surely be adding to people’s misery. There appears to be no light at the end of tunnel.
