Criticising the Centre for raising the price of LPG, BJD Chief Whip Pramila Mallik said “Centre has turned deaf ears despite frequent demands over reducing LPG price.”
While the people are struggling to cope with the socio-economic fallout of the COVID pandemic, the rising price of the cooking gas has added to their burden, the BJD said adding that it will intensify the agitation, if the Centre does not take steps to bring the price under control.
