indians should stop "wanting" and start "doing". instead of complaining about this and that why don't they actually do something to make a change? guess thats what makes indian different from regular people.
 
Oh ,thanks for reminding.
BTW if people are so worried of inflation,they will vote out this corrupt Govt.

Well with toilet museums, call centers,and hate for Pakistan, India has forgotten about the things they should be focusing on. My well wishes to all Indians. I hope you guys stop hating Pakistan and finally agree to peace with us and China.
 
Looking at the charts above, it seems that India's inflation rate is usually near the double-digit line.

How much of India's economic growth has been pure inflation?
 
India's econ policy is not effective, at least in inflation curbing.

You guys really need change a FM.
