Indian Inflation and Price Hike
No way to live here! Inflation has affected Indian economy severely. Price for every commodity is sky rocketing. Price for necessary commodities like rice, wheat, etc are already very high now. Don't know what will happen to them as Christmas closes. One liter of Petrol/Gasoline cost more that 70 Indian Rupees and one liter Diesel cost about 50 Indian Rupees. In Kerala, the situation is even worse. Kerala depend other states like Tamil Nadu, Andhra etc for commodities like rice, vegetables etc. They are transported 100s of Kilometers everyday to reach Kerala Market. Thus, Oil prices affect Kerala Market seriously. Actually, income to almost every family is not enough to survive today's challenges. Anyway, lets hope for the best.

Save Tigers; Wayanad Tiger Issue
Last day, another tiger was shot down by officials in Wayanad, Kerala. Tiger was spotted in a nearby village and a team of officials were setup to capture the tiger. During the mission, the tiger turned against them and they were forced to shoot down the tiger. This is not a new phenomenon here. Due to habitat destruction, tigers visit nearby villages in search for food. Many tigers are caught/killed from here before. On the other hand, people living there says that they can't even sleep comfortably. They are living in fear of being killed. Why the government is standing still? Why couldn't they do anything to solve this issue? There are many questions like this, to be answered. Anyway, something should be worked out soon, otherwise we may loose our last hope of saving tigers. Lets hope everything to be fine.
