The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has strongly condemned the hike in petrol and diesel prices by Punjab’s Amarinder Singh government.
In a statement issued from the party headquarters here Wednesday, senior leader of the party and Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Punjab Assembly, Harpal Singh Cheema said that the Captain government had proved that it was anti-people by imposing more burden on the people, already affected by inflation. He said that Capt Amarinder Singh, being CM of an agriculture-oriented state should have taken the farmers by the arm and supported them but on the contrary had levied tax of 30 paisa, thus increasing the price of diesel and petrol.
