The ruling CPI(M) in Kerala on Sunday came down heavily on the Centre over the increase in the LPG cylinder rate, saying the BJP-led NDA government will end up shutting down the household kitchens across the country.
Slamming the central government’s decision, the Left party urged the people to protest against the price hike. “By increasing the price of LPG cylinders regularly, the union government will end up shutting down kitchens across the country… The price hike amounts to challenging the people of the country who are trying to bounce back from the crisis induced by Covid-19 pandemic. The state secretariat of the CPI(M) urges people from all sections of the society to strongly protest against the price hike,” the party said in a statement.
