It's a message tailored for Americans who are still exasperated by the jump in consumer prices that began 3 1/2 years ago. Yet most mainstream economists say Trump's policy proposals wouldn't vanquish inflation. They'd make it worse. They warn that his plans to impose huge tariffs on imported goods, deport millions of migrant workers and demand a voice in the Federal Reserve's interest rate policies would likely send prices surging.

paddy variety PR-126, developed by Punjab Agricultural University, is at the center of a debate in Punjab. The AAP-led state government supports this variety, but the opposition Congress criticizes it for its lower yield. According to a TOI report, PR-126 has the advantage of reducing farming costs and helping combat air pollution in Delhi-NCR. This variety matures in 123-125 days, compared to the popular Pusa-44 variety's 155-160 days. This shorter growth period saves on irrigation and energy costs, and preserves groundwater. Additionally, it provides farmers with enough time to prepare for the next crop without resorting to stubble burning. However, PR-126 yields 4-5 quintals less per acre than Pusa-44, which produces 35-36 quintals per acre. It also yields 5 kg less rice during milling. This has led Punjab Opposition leader Partap Singh Bajwa to criticize Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann for promoting PR-126.
