Inflation

When you see the various News Papers it is mentioned that the rate of inflation has come down up to 0.34% but the price of goods are not going down, like -rice, oils, vegetable etc. So is it a false statement or if it is true than why it is not going down? How they calculate the rate of inflation? Lower & Middle class people are in very trouble to meet their house hold expenditure. The politicians are becoming rich day by day and public is facing troubles. Is there any solution for lower middle class people either with Government, or any economist. In present Government Dr. Manmohan Singh himself a good economist and P.Chidambram also. But the inflation rised on top in his time only and share market also crashed. Midle Class met tremenous loss due to investment in shares and mutual funs also. What will happen to the country because of this situation? Thanks
