R.A.Bhat says
At one side the meagre amount in the shape of D.A in increased to the Govt. employees and on the other hand the price index of the market is increased upto an alarming suituation. Both ways the poor indians are left in the relentless hands of time. The very high ups are enjoying the luxurious life whileas the working as well as poor section is ignored in every bit of life. What a tragedy?
