Ruckus in Parliament on the issue of inflation
The central government had attributed this increase to the war that broke out between Russia-Ukraine. Due to the increase in the prices of crude oil in the international market, the prices of oil are increasing continuously.
The opposition is constantly trying to surround the government on the issue of rising oil prices. In the Rajya Sabha on Monday, the opposition parties led by the Congress surrounded the central
government on the issue of skyrocketing inflation due to rising petrol prices. The opposition claims that today not only the country but the budget of every household is disturbed due to inflation.
