Noting that the government was concerned about inflation, Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh today said more steps could be taken to contain it and a
moderation could be expected in a couple of weeks.
Attributing the inflation to rise in prices of certain commodities
internationally, Singh said the government has already taken steps to check the
upward trend of prices.
"We are all concerned. The Cabinet Committee on Prices met and took certain
decisions. Whatever more can be done, will be done," he told reporters at the
Rashtrapati Bhawan after the swearing-in of new ministers.
