Chandrapur: Shiv Sena district unit on Friday organized a bullock cart and two-wheeler rally in the city to protest fuel price hike. District President Sandeep Girhe said the Central government had raised petrol prices 20 times since the Covid-19 lockdown was imposed in the country.
Girhe, who led the protest, claimed that the fuel and domestic gas price have escalated manifold in the recent months. He said the PM Narendra Modi’s government had come to power by promising reduction in fuel prices but now it is duping people.
The rally started from Jatpura Gate and concluded at district collectorate. Protesters raised slogans against the Central government and later a delegation submitted a memorandum to the collector.
