West Bengal Government has declared potato, pulse and edible oil as essential goods. This has been done through a notification, named West Bengal Prevention of Hoarding of Essential Good Staff Order, 2009. This will prevent the hoarding of these items of daily need by merchants. Thus the artificial increase of prices would be checked somewhat.
It seems that the West Bengal Government is making an attempt to win back some of its lost faith among the general populace or at least to stem the tide of bad press that it has been getting lately.
Whatever the reason, I am sure we all welcome the move.
Kudos.
