Consistent struggle against hoarding and speculative trading are need of the hour on behalf of the left forces. A struggle to force the Center to work on strengthening Public Distributive System and Essential Commodities Act will find many friends too. The parliament of India and even the Prime Minister's meeting with the Chief Ministers tried to hoodwink the people about the real causes of inflation of food prices, protecting the class interests they represent. It might be the right time to build the bridges towards left unity to expose and create a strong resistance against this deceit.
