In Telangana, the Indian National Congress (INC) Telangana Unit, staged a protest against the rising inflation and the increase in prices of gas cylinders, petrol, and diesel.
Mr. Sameer Waliullah, the Hyderabad District Congress Committee president, took out a mock funeral procession of LPG cylinders. Mahila Congress Charminar incharge advocate Mujeebullah Shareef, Purnapul division incharge Aslam Shareef, Dabirpura incharge Dilawar Hussain, Yousuf Danish, Suresh Babu, Dinesh, Chandrasekhar, Hyderabad president Tahseen Sultana and other leaders participated in the protest.
According to sources, the Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) leaders carried placards with slogans condemning the hike in the prices of cooking gas cylinders. A poster had the picture of Union Minister Smriti Irani with the slogan ‘Where are you Cylinderella?’ while another poster read ‘Modi Hai To, Mehengai Hai’.
In addition, the Congress activists, in their posters, also questioned the silence of Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao over rising inflation and why his government is not reducing VAT on petrol and diesel. Speaking to media persons on the occasion, Hyderabad DCC president Sameer Waliullah lashed out at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Government for its failure to control the rising inflation and the increasing fuel prices.
The protest carried out in the Old Hyderabad is expected to continue, whereas the BJP and the Bharat Rashtra Samithi, the ruling Government of Telangana are yet to respond.
