The soaring prices have made Simons working as teachers in Varatanapalli to cut down their expenses to meet the rising expenditure. “We earlier used to save at least Rs. 5,000 per month for the education for our sons. But now the savings have become nil.” The couple has two sons Bruno Silvester (15) and Bento Silvester (13). “We had promised to buy a new computer for our sons but had to settle down for a second-hand one.” Post-inflation things have
