Congress leader Rahul Gandhi warned that India may face rising inflation due to a weak rupee and higher fuel costs. He said, “These are clear signals of the inflation to come.” The rupee recently fell to a record low against the US dollar. Gandhi said this could raise prices of daily goods and hurt small businesses. He added that production and transport costs will increase. He also claimed fuel prices may rise after elections. He criticised the government, saying it has “no strategy.” The concerns come as global tensions push up oil prices and affect India’s energy supply. (PC: AICC)
