Sir,
The prices of petroleum products are coming down after the Central Government took some measures in this direction. But the continuous hike in the prices of vegetables, fruits, etc is a matter of prime concern. Today, the poor are the worst prey of sky-rocketing prices of vegetables, fruits, foodgrains, pulses, etc. Every educated person is aware of the cause that has resulted in price hike of vegetables and other eatables. One of the most common reasons for increase in prices is hoarding by traders who try to create an artificial scarcity as they have done in case of rice and food-grains. The Govt should check such malpractices to safeguard the interests of the consumers. Inspite of this, some other steps also need to be taken to establish a direct link between the farmers and the buyers.
Hope present Govt would take corrective measures to arrest the hike of vegetable prices that are continuously going out of the budget of a common man of the country who have voted Modi Govt to power with a lot of expectations and hope.
Yours etc….
