Reserve Bank's way of handling the inflation situation. Speaking at the annual FIBAC conference of bankers here on Wednesday, Das said that taking drastic measures ahead of time

would have cost the economy and citizens a heavy price. Admitting that the inflation target has been missed, Das said the RBI decided to support the economy by not increasing

interest rates aggressively due to the rise in inflation. "We have prevented the economy from being affected completely by not raising interest rates aggressively and refrained

from taking drastic measures prematurely," he said. Shaktikanta Das said that the economy and the people would have to pay a heavy price for taking a quick or aggressive stance, he

said, adding that the monetary policy committee (MPC), which sets the interest rate, is meeting on Thursday to prepare an answer to the government. The RBI governor also defended

the RBI's move not to make public the letter to the government. (with agency input)
