Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Tuesday slammed the Centre, saying the ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ to commemorate 75 years of India’s independence will be remembered for record increase in prices of petrol, diesel and LPG. He also said that it seems that the Narendra Modi government has given people inflation as Diwali gift.

“Looking at the way the prices of petrol, diesel, LPG, edible oil and vegetables are increasing, it seems that the Modi government has given a Diwali gift of inflation to the people,” Gehlot tweeted. “Earlier governments used to try to minimise inflation before festivals so that the common people could celebrate with joy and happiness,” he said.
The CM said just three days before Diwali, the Modi government made arrangements to make sweets expensive by increasing the price of commercial LPG cylinders by Rs 266. The price of domestic LPG gas cylinder has increased by Rs 305 from Rs 598 to Rs 903 in one year, he added.
