Staging a unique protest by selling few bottles of half litre petrol at a rate of Rs 20 each, Youth Congress members claimed that petrol price would have been Rs 40 per litre if the Congress was in power at the Centre. They staged the protest in front of Mini Vidhan Soudha in Hubballi on Tuesday.
Raising slogans and displaying placards against the Union Government for hiking petrol and diesel prices, Indian Youth Congress (IYC) Hubballi-Dharwad Assembly Constituency Committee members lamented that petrol and diesel prices are being increased daily when the entire country is hit by Covid-19 pandemic, and people are in crisis due to the lockdown.
