After easing of curbs, the principal opposition party, the Congress, has decided to take on the government on the issue of petrol price hike, after cornering the government on the shortage of vaccine, medical equipment and drugs. The regular petrol is already selling at more than Rs 100 per litre in Mumbai and some other parts of the country.
The Congress has decided to hold massive protests on June 11 across the country on all petrol pumps and will demand roll back of the prices. The Congress has alleged that the prices were static till the West Bengal polls, but after that it again started shooting up.
