Modi govt robbing people: Mallikarjun Kharge on petrol, diesel prices
New Delhi(PTI): Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday slammed the government for not transferring the benefits of the reduction in crude oil prices to the people.
For how long will the BJP keep collecting "ransom" from the public, Kharge asked as he shared a media report, which said that crude oil prices are at a 42-month low, and accused the Modi government of "robbing" the people.
"The price of crude oil has been continuously falling, petrol and diesel prices have not been reduced... Modi government is robbing the public fearlessly!" Kharge said in a post in Hindi on X.
"Modi ji only tells his 'Mann Ki Baat' to the public through long one-sided podcasts," he said and claimed that the PM is making people shed tears due to inflation.
"Crude oil prices have fallen by 34 per cent since May 2014. Tax collection game of Rs 36 lakh crores in 10 years! When will the price of petrol and diesel be reduced?" he said.

Woman Police Commissioner goes undercover to assess women's safety in Hyderabad
Hyderabad (PTI): Soon after taking over as Malkajgiri Police Commissioner B Sumathi went undercover and took up a field visit after midnight on May 1 to assess law and order, including women's safety.
Sumathi assumed charge as the Malkajgiri Police Commissioner on May 1.
On the same night, the senior IPS officer, in plainclothes, moved through the streets of Dilsukhnagar here, standing alone for some time to get a first-hand knowledge of law and order situation, official sources said on Wednesday.
"It was a general checking and she later interacted with police officials," they said.
The sources said about 30-40 individuals who approached her were counselled regarding their behaviour towards women in public places.
Sumathi, who earlier headed the Special Intelligence Branch (SIB), of the Telangana Police, oversaw the long drawn process of the Maoists joining the mainstream.
