Congress Legislature Party leader Alamgir Alam, Agriculture Minister Badal and Health Minister Banna Gupta and MLAs will be present in this demonstration.
A meeting of party office-bearers was held to ensure success of the programme on Tuesday at the party headquarter in the State Capital.
Talking to media persons JPCC Spokesperson Alok Kumar Dubey said that all the preparations for the demonstration have been completed. “Banner-poster has been made and a waterproof tent is also being built near the spot, where in the presence of a limited number of party leaders and workers will protest. They will express their anger against the increase in the price of petrol-diesel, cooking gas. According to the instructions of All India Congress Committee (AICC) and the Organization In-Charge, KC Venugopal agitations are being organized all over the Country regarding rising inflation, in the past, there was a nationwide protest by organizing demonstrations and cycle tours at petrol pumps,” he added.
Speaking on the occasion JPCC Spokesperson, Lal Kishorenath Shahdeo said that it took 70 years for the price of petrol to reach Rs 60 and it took only 7 years to reach Rs 111, in spite of this, the BJP leader was only trying to curse the previous Congress Government by drinking water for inflation but now the people of the country have also started to understand that whose rule was good. He said that Narendra Modi, the head of the NDA Government, is such a magician, the Country which Congress took 70 years to bring here, Narendra Modi took only seven years to make that Country 100 years behind.
JPCC Spokesperson, Rajesh Gupta said that according to the auspicious numbers of BJP leaders, petrol has reached the auspicious number 111 and diesel has reached the auspicious number 101, now the BJP is just waiting for the gas cylinder to reach 1001, so that no one could stop India from becoming a Vishwa Guru. “On the one hand, for the last 16 months, the people suffering from the crisis of Corona epidemic, the falling economy, rising unemployment are wreaking havoc, while on the other hand, the Central Government is finding epidemic opportunities and forcing the people to get on the road due to inflation,” he added.
