If this trip of mine has taught me one thing it would be the fact that we have been but with a huge wave of Inflation and most of us don't even realise it. I am frequent customer of almost all the snacks that get up on the Trains on every stoppages so when I saw a vendor come with some Groundnuts I really wanted to have some. As usual I asked the price first and the vendor said it's 20 INR which i thought was ok considering I was about to get a Mixture of Crushed Groundnuts, Coconut Shavings, Diced Onions, some spices and a drizzle of Lemon Juice. The thing that I did not expect was the freaking Volume that I was going to get.
Now I am not sure what the wright was but bro the Paper Plate didn't even cover half of my palm. I am pretty sure you can imagine how small the plate was. I took two plates one for myself and one for my Dad and once we got the plates we just looked at each other in shock as I am pretty sure two years back this same plate would have costed me 5 INR or max 10 INR so in a matter of 2 years the inflation in the snacks that we eat in Trains have gone up by 100-200 percent. So yeah when our Finance Minister tweets again stating Inflation is Manageable i will most definitely be giving my two cents there.
I knew the Inflation was high here in India due to all the money printing but I was definitely not expecting these levels of Inflation.
hello @arunava
The world economy has changed not only in India, no doubt that inflation makes everything cost more, but on the other hand you get less. In my country Venezuela it is worse the products cough in some occasions are worth for example, 5 dollars but at the hour and sometimes minutes cost more.
thank you very much for sharing
