... hold protest at Mani Majra

Chandigarh, July 10

Congress workers today protested against the BJP government over the hike in petrol, diesel, cooking gas and food prices. Party workers protested at Mani Majra main bazaar under the leadership of Chandigarh Territorial Congress Committee president Subhash Chawla.

The workers gathered in front of the Old NAC office and marched on foot to the main market, where they raised slogans against the BJP government. Chawla said: “The BJP government has proved unsuccessful in controlling the inflation. The government has nothing to do with rising inflation and the problems of the people.”

Chawla said: “The BJP had promised public on reducing inflation. The common man believed in them and brought them to power. Now, they are supporting capitalists.” — TNS
