Rahul Gandhi NEW DELHI: Congress’s Rahul Gandhi led the opposition in slamming the fuel price hike by saying that people are paying for the mistakes of Modi govt, as he warned about more such shocks in the coming future. Also, Congress accused Modi govt of pushing the country’s jewellery sector towards “lockdown” through PM’s appeal that people avoid gold purchases, and through sharp increase in import duty on gold and silver.Rahul said, “The Rs 3 shock has already arrived, the rest of the recovery will be done in instalments.”CPM politburo condemned the move saying the hike would impose a greater burden on the people already reeling under inflation, unemployment and stagnant wages.Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said the Centre is now seeking from the US an extension of 30-day waiver to buy Russian oil.Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav took a swipe at PM Modi’s call to conserve fuel, saying that the bicycle, SP’s official election symbol, was the only alternative.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos’Not An Iota Of Truth’: PM Modi Rubbishes Report Of Restriction On Foreign Travel28 Hostages From Kuki, Naga Communities Held By Armed Groups Released In Manipur’I Am Sorry To…’: Shashi Tharoor To Skip VD Satheesan’s Swearing-In As Kerala CMNEET UG 2026 Re-Exam On June 21, Computer-Based Test Format From Next Year: Education MinisterOman To Gujarat: India Fast-Tracks Deep-Sea Gas Pipeline Project Amid Hormuz CrisisCJI Surya Kant Makes Strong Remarks During Senior Advocate HearingKerala CM-Designate Satheesan Hits Back At BJP Over IUML, Secularism DebateFormer RAW Chief Flags Security Risks Over PM Modi’s Convoy DownsizingTMC MP Derek O’Brien Slams Centre After Petrol-Diesel Hike, Targets Modi Government’Bhojshala Complex Is A Temple, Hindus Have Right To Worship’: MP High Court123PhotostoriesKishwer Merchant recalls her father’s reaction to her interfaith marriage and age gap with Suyyash Rai; reacts to her son being trolled for wearing a skull capLauki vs Tori: Which has more nutrition for summer and 5 interesting ways to eat themAncient Kashmiri beauty secrets that are becoming popular again in IndiaFrom transparent bodies to underground lives: 5 bizarre frogs you’ve probably never heard of8 modern TV unit designs to instantly upgrade your living roomPersonality test: Mango, litchi, watermelon?
