Directions: Which of the following is an inference which can be made from the facts stated in the below paragraph?

It is now time for the government to worry about falling prices, especially of fuel. Retail inflation dropped to a 13-month low of 4.73% in October, as compared to 2.56% in September, primarily due to the Russia-Ukraine conflicts. Fuel prices fell by a huge 6.96 percentage points compared to a year ago and, at minus 2.61%, are now in deflationary territory for the second successive month. The fall in inflation is obviously good news for consumers, particularly those in urban India who are happy to pay less for their purchases; also for the Reserve Bank of India, which will now have more room for maneuvering in the matter of interest rates.
