Inflation's Flame: The Heat on Common People Post-Elections

Madhya Pradesh Congress chief Jitu Patwari took aim at the Union government on Friday over soaring LPG prices, alleging that the common people are bearing the brunt of relentless inflation post-elections.

At a press conference, Patwari accused the government of failing to honor election promises to curb inflation, as essential commodity prices escalate. Since February, commercial gas cylinder prices have surged, increasing operational costs for hospitality sectors and impacting consumers, he stated.

Patwari further criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP government for the economic woes affecting household budgets, particularly for the poor and middle class, citing inflation, unemployment, and financial challenges.
