For the first time in the history of mankind

‘Need’, ‘Comfort’ and ‘Luxury’ are sold at the same price in India!

Onions Rs.65, Petrol Rs.65 and Beer Rs.65.

Like Laloo ji said once, in India Shoes and Chappels are sold in Air-conditioned show rooms, and the vegetables and fruits are sold on road-side! We have grown immunity and tolerance to witness such apathy!

This seems to be one kind of social justice the Govt.of India is following.  They are very good believers of socialistic policies, but failing to bring the poormen on par with richclass despite there are 100s and 1000s of programmes launched during the 65 yrs., after independence. So, it seems that they are finding satisfaction by swelling the skin of the poor by stretching him too much and making him look like a fat richman of this land.  The prices of essential commodities are far reaching the poorman and the Govt. is just remained as a spectator.  
Fortunately for them, the poormen of this land dont have the power to recall these non-performers. They need not feel insecure there.  They can continue to be there till their term completes and they can come back to the power again because they know very well the calculations of caste, religion and region and other emotional factors.  Our democracy is simple arithmetics.  Except for casting vote these people dont have any power, but their representatives has a great power to enjoy. Let them enjoy.  Jai Ho India.

Framers of the constitution of india very wisely devised the three prominent institutions Judiciary Legislature And executive in a way that they would mutually keep a check on each other and simultaneously remain independent in the interest of the common man.
Today the tragedy is that they have connived in the disinterest of the common man.So many more things are going to happen for the first time in the history of mankind.

Well Said Suresh ji, price movement is due to  rather marketing manipulation & bad governance & public apathy to restrain/revolt against the corrupt Ministers-Traders-
Bureaucrats nexuses. Slowly all luxury things are becoming necessity. When you feed
your greed you cannot bifurcate or differentiate between Luxury,necessity & need.
