Curbing measures

Hike in prices is getting severe by the day. The first and the worst hit victims of inflation are those who depend on daily wages. They find it difficult to meet even their immediate needs. Survival of the salaried and middle-class also becomes tougher. They struggle hard to make both ends meet. Their pay packet is hardly sufficient and yet they take extra care in financial planning. Only the rich remain cosy in their cocoons. The Government ought to take measures to curb inflation and it must help people to meet their current obligations.
