Sir,
Please permit me to point out the menace of rising prices of essential commodities. I shall be obliged to you kindly publish my views by sparing me a column or two in your esteemed daily.
The rise in the price s of essential commodities has become a very serious issue. The daily necessities of life are becoming costlier with each passing day. Prices of wheat, four, rice , pulses, sugar, vegetable oil and other basic necessities of life have touched new heights. In fact, there is no limit to galloping prices.
The steep rise in prices has severely hit the poor and middle class people. They groan day and night under crushing weight of rising prices. The government must release that price line is the life line. Big businessmen and hoarders store things in their godowns and create artificial shortages in the market. This leads to an increase in prices.
More fair price depots should be set up. Shopkeepers and traders must be ordered to put price lists of essential commodities. Black marketers and hoarders must be dealt with sternly. Much food should not be wasted in parties and marriages. People should understand the value of simple living and observe it in their daily life. Every step must be taken to check the rise in prices.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
Promila Seth.

Sub: Skyrocketing prices of essential commodities.
Sir:
I am writing to you to express my deep concern over the skyrocketing
prices of essential commodities which making the life of the common people very
hard. The Government has failed miserably in its promise of keeping the
inflation low. The prices of essential commodities such as pulses, vegetables,
cereals, cooking oil, sugar, rice, and petrol, etc. have been rising
unrelentingly.
The Government’s all measure to bring the prices down have
failed. I just want to ask the concerned ministry and authorities what is
happening. The poor are still grinding, and the rich are having a gala
luxurious life! Why does the Government not put a reign on inflation? Why the
Government PDS is is such a big failure? See the paradox! On one hand we have
food grains worth millions of rupees rotting in the FCI godowns, and on the other hand the poor and the middle
classes of our country not getting the food grains and pulses at reasonable
price.
Why doe the Government not make these food grains and pulses
available to the common people. Once the Government will supply these food
items into the market, the prices will automatically go down. Besides the
Government needs to act strictly against the hoarding and black-marketing of
food items.
Through the columns of your esteemed daily I appeal to the
concerned ministry to look into the matter and take steps to alleviate people’s
troubles.
Yours faithfully,
