Shikhar Sammelan: Prahlad Joshi Claims BJP Controls Prices of Essential Commodities | ABP News

While speaking at ABP News' Shikhar Sammelan summit, Union Minister Pralhad Joshi stated that the average inflation over the past 10 years has been 5-6 percent. He mentioned that last year, global inflation was driven by war and El Niño, but India's inflation remained relatively low. In contrast, during Congress's tenure, inflation occasionally reached 15 percent. Joshi attributed the stability to PM Modi's leadership, which kept inflation at an average of 5-6 percent. Addressing the unmet target of crossing 400, Joshi shared an anecdote: "A student who expected 99 percent was disappointed with 95, while another who expected 35 and got 40 celebrated throughout the village. We will work on our flaws and improve."
