New Delhi: In a fresh attack on the Union government as the price of each domestic LPG cylinder was hiked by Rs 50, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today said the government is ‘looting from the public’ and is helping in the development of only ‘two’.
Along with a clipping of a news report, the Congress MP tweeted, “Janta se loot, sirf ‘do’ ka vikaas”.
He attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s campaign ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikaas’ – his mantra for inclusive development.
Rahul had earlier pinned the ‘Ambani-Adani’ tag on the contentious farm laws and also claimed many a time in the past that the government works for only the two richest businessmen in the country and not the common people.
The price of liquefied non-subsidised LPG domestic cylinder has been hiked by Rs 50.
From today, a 14.2 kg gas cylinder in New Delhi will now cost Rs 769. This is the second price hike in the month of February.
Earlier, the non-subsidised LPG price was hiked by Rs 25 on 4 February, 2021 across the four metro cities.
