Minister for School Education Madhu Bangarappa has termed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s announcement to reduce the LPG price by ₹100 a ‘business tactic’ by the BJP ahead of the Lok Sabha elections.
Addressing a press conference at his residence in Shivamogga on Monday, Mr. Madhu Bangarappa said that after increasing the LPG price to almost ₹1,300 per cylinder, it has now been reduced by ₹100. “It is pure business tactics ahead of the polls. People will understand it very well,” he said.
He argued that the people of the country were fed up with the BJP administration at the centre. “Farmers are on the streets in Delhi against the BJP government. The BJP has no scheme that connects people. But we, in Congress, have introduced many schemes that benefit the public,” he said.
