Arun Jaitley hits back on Congress' charge on price rise
Any form of bluster is no substitute for statistics. It is not a question of slogans but statistics.
Seasonal rise in food prices before monsoon is a common issue.
Wholesale price index was higher during UPA regime and negative for 18 months after NDA came to power.
Inflation was in double digits during the UPA regime.
Everyone in this House claims to be going to the market every day.
Steps are being taken to tackle price rise, government is keeping a check on prices.
The market price depends on the formula of demand and supply.
We are now convincing the farmers to cultivate more dal. If this was done over the last 10 years, we would not have seen such high prices.
We are now, not only convincing farmers in India, but also signing agreements with African countries, for eg. Mozambique. All this is being done now so that we have a better tomorrow.
Such was the case in the past that the entire world spoke of India's policy paralysis.
