Kamran Akmal, an employee of Guwahati restaurant expressing his concern said, “It’s true that they reduced just 100 rupees in the LPG cylinder, but everything else is getting more expensive. Look at the cost of vegetables; they’re skyrocketing! And don’t get me started on oil and other items – they’re all becoming costly. It’s putting a strain on our finances, and we’re not seeing any real benefit.” He further added,” If only things were cheaper and inflation came down, people would actually benefit.”
