Why I am ok with rising fuel prices
Why I don't mind rising fuel prices! 2020 was an unusual year. Corona not only shut down businesses and production (leading to shrinking of GDP) but also entailed huge expenditure by the govt. Now, whether the money reached each one of us or not would remain a matter of debate about our DNA that has enough strains of corruption, the financial outlay is as under:- -Rs 3500 for every positive case for provision of oxymeter, thermometer and vitamin supplements. India had more than 1,00,00,000 cases. - Rs 1.25 Lakh per Corona death for cremation and other expenses. (ever wondered why every death was being shown as Corona case). -Eight months of free rations and financial assistance to BPLs and labourers. To add to all that, chinks arrived at our borders. Billions were spent to mobilise and house 60,000 additional troops and create facilities for them. The fact that we didn't suffer any major catastrophe despite the harsh winters, goes to prove that enough was done. Now add defence...
