Essential food articles have become quite costly for me. Rice, wheat flour, cooking oil and vegetables everything has become has become costly in the recent months. Can you imagine, tomatoes ?? are now more expensive than apples? Tomatoes are selling for 150 rupees a kg. They were 40 rupees a kg only last month. People get angry when they are hit on their stomach ( to say it figuratively). They get angry with the administration. I wouldn't be surprised if the citizens decide to change the administration 2024.

I am getting angry about food prices. Some are double what they were a few months ago. They say the price of food is dropping but that is because the price of eggs went down after astronomical pricing. I am glad I am not trying to feed children anymore. I feel sorry for those who do.

Some here have been really battling to buy good food. It's either pay the rent or buy vegetables and fruit.

The prices seem ridiculous everywhere, and it’s crazy. I understand people being fed up with being bilked.

I think it is quite natural to get angry when we know about the hike of prices of essential commodities. However, I do agree our angry does not help any purpose. Last month I got 2kgs of tomatoes for Rs. 40/- Really surprised on the sudden hike of its price. May be the climate plays an important role on this. Other veggies are also become costly due to bad weather.

I'm not angry so much as worried for children. How will they get food that will help them grow well?

People will get angry when they're hungry! Many of my favorite items have doubled in price! If you make or have enough money the rise In price won't hurt you. But if you're already on edge, you could get pushed over the edge.
