Sir,

Uncontrolled Price Hike across the Country
The prices of all sorts of essential commodities have shot up within a very short time. Commodities including rice, flour, chick-peas, sugar and edible oil increased in the city markets. The prices of fish and meat are stable but the price of vegetables is on the increase. The majority of people who have meagre salaries find it difficult to make their both ends meet.
Both the local and city markets, the prices of Onion and Garlic are sky-high. Sugar, flour and rice are also being sold in the increased rate. This nonstop price hike is badly affecting the life of the low-income people. Very recently, the government has fixed the new price of diesel oil and all other types of fuel oil which is also in an increased rate. According to the market-experts the rise in the price of fuel oil is worsening the situation. In spite of the assurance of the minister of the ministry of commerce; the prices of essential commodities are increasing day by day. It is time that our government should check the causes behind the ever-increasing prices without any delay. It needs to immediately check black marketing, hoarding and profiteering and it should strictly deal with those who are found guilty. In fact, they are the enemies of society. Hence, they deserve to be tackled hard-handedly. Only then common man can be relieved from the effects of price hike.
On behalf of the common people
