Musharraf got lucky , because he was able to get the 7.5 billion dollars from the david camp , right into the country's account .
This could have brought down the dollar sufficiently , even below the 45 Rs mark ,
But he decided to play things the other way ,
He too printed more money , and increased the circulation of money in the country , as a result economic boom came and people got happy with his economic system . While the exchange rate benefit we could get got leveled out .
But this was a smart move , as a lowered dollar hurts the exporters and encourages importers .
So no objection to this specific decision of Musharraf.
( While other issues aside)
There is only and only one way to bring the inflation down , and that is to restrict the flow of money .
And this government is doing exactly the opposite ,
And this is why we are getting hit by a double blade sword.
