Sushma Gowda (Special correspondent)

Another round of the Congress party on Monday was marked by a cycle rally against the rise in fuel and commodity prices due to the anti-people policies of the BJP government.

KPCC President D.K.Shivakumar, Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly and Siddaramaiah, Patil-led legislators marched from the Congress office to the assembly hall,protesting.

The Congress,which had previously taken to the streets on behalf of the people through statewide cycle bicycles,100 notouts,had expressed outrage against the government on the first day of the Vidhana Sabha session last week.

As a part of this struggle, the Congress is again heating up the government for the cycle rally. Such a fight does not stop here.

Bandh sent a message that the BJP government would continue to reduce prices and reduce the burden on the people.

Responding to the media after his arrival in the compound, Shivakumar warned the government:

The BJP government has been scratching the pockets of ordinary people all day.The lives of the people have reached a disadvantage.

No salary is too high for anyone.The pension is not high.In the case of COVID,no one was compensated.

When the price of oil is low in the international market,its profit is not made available to the masses.

Petrol price crosses the 100 barrier,diesel is 94, cooking gas costs 880.This has also increased the price of other commodities.

25 per liter on petrol.Diesel Price and the cost of cooking gas.We are asking the government to reduce.The masses have reached a point where they are able to make a living by selling prices.

People’s Hospital did not pay the bill at the time of COVID,nor did it provide relief to the family of the deceased.He did not console the family of the deceased,nor gave them any courage.

We have protested against this anti-people policy of the government.We arrived in the front yard to raise the voice for the people.Arrived by bicycle today.The government should lower the price. Otherwise our struggle will continue.I call on the people to get ready for the evil government.
