Answer 2

The way prices of essentials have shot through in India points to either or all of these possibilities.

1. Some very corrupt politicains in the ruling coalition, especially from the Congress Party, are unsure about their fortunes in the next general elections.

2. The Congress and its allies have opened their coffers to receive donations from businessmen for the next general elections. In turn, these businessmen have been given a free hand to raise prices according to their wish.

Two things are important to note: -

1. Price rise and inflation started well before the rise in prices of fuels.

2. The UPA government boasts of three eminent economics pundits: Manmohan Singh, P. Chidambaram and Pranab Mukherjee (he was finance minister in the past). Together they can't devise a way to control inflation and instead ask the people to bear it patiently. Other Congress ministers and leaders talk nonsense.

Something must be surely rotten up there which makes them helpless watchers of the hapless plight of the common people.

Answer 3

Not only also them but also some of the major constituents of the coalition including the communists who "extend support from outside"

and blackmail from inside.But one must admit that the Congress has been running circles round the Left parties and taking them also for a ride.
