Pannu said that the BJP has once again given the people of the country a cruel gift of inflation today. The Central Government has once again increased diesel prices by \u20b92.71 and petrol prices by \u20b92.61 per litre.<\/p>\n<p>Expressing surprise, he said that within just the last 10 days, petrol and diesel prices have already been increased by more than \u20b97.50 per litre. These anti-people policies of the BJP are not only proving fatal for our farmers but are also breaking the backbone of the business community. Today, every common man in the country is crushed under the burden of this inflation.<\/p>\n<p>Targeting Punjab BJP President Sunil Jakhar, Baltej Pannu questioned on what basis Jakhar Sahib is seeking votes for the BJP in the municipal corporation elections. Jakhar Sahib should answer the people of Punjab and the country as to what achievement he has to show after increasing petrol and diesel prices by \u20b97.50 in the past few days, on the basis of which he is going among the people of Punjab. The people of Punjab clearly understand this betrayal and will show BJP its rightful place in the elections against this exploitation.<\/p>\n<p>The AAP leader further said that Punjab is a state directly connected to agriculture and the paddy season is about to begin in the state. Imposing such a heavy burden of diesel and petrol price hike on farmers just before this crucial time is a well-planned conspiracy of the Central Government. This act of BJP is exactly like authoritarianism, just as the Central Government earlier brought the 3 black farm laws. The people of Punjab will never tolerate this ruthless mentality of the BJP to economically ruin farmers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Petrol-Diesel prices increased by \u20b97.50 in 10 days, BJP policies are anti-farmer and anti-people: Pannu Chandigarh News (May 25): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Punjab State Media In-Charge Baltej Pannu launched a sharp attack on the BJP over the skyrocketing prices of petrol and diesel.
