No, it is not right, Saif. Unfortunately, the desire for things material has overwhelmed honor in all cultures. Fortunately, not everyone is like this, as you can see from your friends here in Blogit.

The merchants feel that they can hike up prices and people will buy at that time! Sad though that they take advantage of the customers.

Gee, and I thought only certain American cities practiced this particular scandal. It's called "gouging," and yes, it is supposed to be against the law! A few law suits were recently settled against gas stations who raised their prices to ridiculous levels following Hurricane Sandy, knowing that, no matter what, people were going to need gasoline. I guess the best descriptive word for this particular practice is unscrupulous . . .
