Only Congress governs for poor, middle class welfare: Rahul Gandhi

New Delhi : Congress MP Rahul Gandhi has come down heavily on the Union government over the hike in price of domestic LPG cylinder, and said only his party governs for the welfare of poor and middle class families. In a tweet, Rahul compared the price of domestic LPG cylinder of about Rs 410 with a subsidy of Rs 827 in 2014 under a Congress-led government to that of over Rs 999 with ‘zero subsidy’ in 2022 under the BJP-led Centre. ‘2 cylinders then for the price of 1 now!’ he said. Only Congress governs for the welfare of poor & middle class Indian families. It’s the core of our economic policy,’ he said. After the hike on Saturday, Raul had said millions of Indian households are waging a difficult battle against ‘extreme inflation, unemployment and poor governance’.
