Early Times Report
JAMMU, Aug 28: Aam Adami Party (AAP) Vice-President Jammu-Poonch Parliament Constituency Rajesh Gupta while interacting with media today expressed concern over sky-rocketing price rise of essential commodities and said incumbent Government has miserably failed to provide succor to the people. Gupta said that the situation on ground is appalling and the future forecast does not look promising at all. "Public welfare doesn't fall in the to-do-list of the Government. People have been left to fend for themselves," they said. AAP leader urged the Government to bring down prices of LPG cylinders to provide relief to the common people in the country. He said that the Government has initiated the very steep hike on LPG cylinders by raising it by Rs 25 per cylinder.
"Already reeling under the worst kind of economic crisis, the people, especially the lower-middle classes and other marginalized sections, are additionally burdened by the crunch of escalating price rise of all the basic commodities and mounting LPG, power and drinking water tariffs," said Gupta.
Rajesh Gupta further added "Administration has turned volte face to the economic distress of people fueled by job losses, crumbling economy, strained agriculture and horticulture sectors, widespread unemployment, development deficit, administrative inertia and soaring unemployment.
