About The Editorial

As BJP celebrates the eighth anniversary of PM Modi’s government, the retail inflation has reached 8.3% level, which was last seen in 2014, when Mr. Modi assumed office. Even though BJP succeeded in controlling inflation in the first five years, a combination of factors including Covid-19 pandemic, high crude oil prices and now the war in Ukraine have raised the Consumer Price Index (CPI) based inflation to a 95 month high.
