Rahul Gandhi reaches Parliament on a bicycle to protest against rising fuel prices

Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday gave a call to Opposition leaders to “unite the majority voice of the people of India” that is represented by their parties.

Accompanied by his party colleagues and Opposition leaders, Mr. Gandhi rode a bicycle to Parliament to protest against the rise in the prices of fuel and cooking gas. Just before the cycle protest, he hosted a breakfast meet for leaders of 15 Opposition parties at the Constitution Club, close to Parliament.

“We [the Opposition parties] represent 60 per cent of the people, the majority of the people. When the government shuts us up, they are not humiliating us as members of Parliament but the majority voice of the people of India. The single most important thing in my view is: let’s unite this voice,” he told all the Opposition MPs.
