Fuel price hike in Bihar: RJD to stage protest on July 18, 19
The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) will stage protests against rising prices of petrol, diesel and LPG at all blocks and district headquarters of the state on July 18 and 19, respectively, party officials said on Wednesday.
Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Prasad Yadav said, “We will write to all parties of the Mahagathbandhan (grand alliance) to join the protest.”
Addressing media persons in state capital, Tejashwi attacked the JD(U)-led state government over increasing hike in prices of petroleum products. “The government used to say that achche din (good days) will be here, but prices of fuel has crossed ₹100 in more than 27 districts. This government is not for the poor,” said Yadav.
