According to a post by BJP leader Amit Malviya on the X social media platform, “Inflation of double digits (more than 10 percent) seen during the UPA period is no longer a matter of concern, which reflects effective governance and value control in the last decade.”
Citing official figures, he said, “Retail inflation has not gone above 8 percent since 2014, while during the UPA 2004-14 it was an average of 8.1 percent, while it was 10.4 percent during 2009-14.” On the other hand, inflation during the UPA government during the period of January 2012 to April 2014 stood above 9 percent in 22 months out of 28 months, which reached nine times in double digits.

The government is continuously unloading wheat and rice from the central pool under the open market sales scheme to increase availability in the market and control retail prices.
As far as fuel is concerned, the price of LPG subsidy and cylinder has been reduced, which will benefit both PM Ujjwala and regular consumers, a reduction of Rs 100 for 14.2 kg of cylinders in non-subsidized LPG prices, which will be effective from 9 March 2024.
