When compared to five metro cities, Delhi has the lowest inflation rate: Manish Sisodia.

Manish Sisodia, the Delhi Deputy Chief Minister, claimed on Friday that the Delhi administration had effectively managed to keep inflation under control in the city, even amid the Covid-19 outbreak.

According to Sisodia, the average annual inflation rate based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in Delhi in 2020-21 was only 3%, compared to 5% nationally. In addition, while the countrywide level of inflation for food prices was 5.7 per cent, it was only 4.1 per cent in Delhi, the lowest in the country. As a result of all of these initiatives, living in Delhi is much cheaper than in other cities.
