Swaraj India party on Friday organised protests across Metro stations in the city against the hike in fares.
Second hike
The party’s volunteers also launched awareness campaigns against the second increase in fares in just six months, at various metro stations including Kirti Nagar, Seelampur, Saket, New Ashok Nagar, Peeragarhi, and Janakpuri West.
Swaraj India leaders said the idea was also to expose theatrical protests by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party against the fare hike.
‘Hypocrisy’
“The AAP, in collusion with the BJP, hiked fares and now both are protesting against their own decision. Have you seen bigger hypocrisy than this?” said Swaraj India Delhi State president Anupam.
