He further added that the number of subsidised LPG cylinders available under the Ujjwala scheme had been reduced from nine to four, while domestic LPG cylinder prices had increased by Rs 89 over the past three months.”12 years of anti-poor economic policies and a compromised foreign policy have today pushed the country into such a state where millions of poor families and women have been forced towards the poisonous smoke of firewood. The number of subsidized cylinders under the Ujjwala scheme has been reduced from 9 to 4. On top of that, the price of domestic LPG cylinders has been increased by Rs 89 in the last 3 months – meaning, first raise the prices, then cut the subsidy, and extinguish the poor’s hearth,” Rahul said through a post on X.The Congress leader also highlighted the rise in the price of 5-kg LPG cylinders, which are widely used by migrant workers, claiming that their cost had increased by Rs 323. He questioned how workers and low-income families would cope with the higher expenses.Rahul further accused the government of favouring large corporate borrowers while shifting the economic burden onto ordinary citizens. He questioned whether workers, farmers, women and the middle class would continue to bear the cost of what he described as a weakening economy.”Waiving off loans worth millions of crores for billionaire friends and making the poor foot the bill for your failures – this is the Modi model of loot. Mr. Modi, will the poor alone bear the burden of your failures? Will only workers, farmers, women, and the middle class pay the price for this crumbling economy that you’ve built?” Rahul added.His remarks come amid continued volatility in global energy markets driven by the escalating conflict in the Middle East.The military escalation has disrupted crude oil supplies, putting upward pressure on global energy prices. Benchmark crude prices surged to nearly $120 per barrel after the conflict began on February 28. Although prices have since moderated, they remain around 30 per cent higher than pre-conflict levels, while natural gas prices have risen by 75 per cent.Meanwhile, despite disruptions affecting the Strait of Hormuz, a key route through which 54 per cent of India’s LPG imports passed before the conflict, the Centre has said there was no shortage of petroleum products in the country.To mitigate the impact of constrained imports, domestic refiners increased LPG production by more than 60 per cent, raising output from 32,000 tonnes per day to 52,000 tonnes per day, according to the Centre.Read the latest news on the go.

The TMC leader alleged that BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari was the real thief and went on to accuse Adhikari’s father of the same.The confrontation comes as the Trinamool Congress faces what could become the biggest internal crisis in its 28-year history.Weeks after a bruising defeat in the West Bengal Assembly elections, the party is now grappling with a major rebellion that threatens its influence in the state and could potentially strengthen the BJP-led NDA’s position in Parliament.The TMC is reportedly witnessing a second wave of defections, with at least 20 MPs said to have submitted a letter to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla expressing support for the NDA. If the claims are accurate, the rebel faction would comfortably cross the two-thirds threshold required to avoid disqualification under the anti-defection law.Addressing a press conference earlier, Banerjee dismissed the dissidents as “traitors” and challenged them to resign from the party and seek a fresh mandate from voters. He claimed the rebels had exposed themselves by meeting senior BJP leader Bhupender Yadav and accused them of abandoning party workers while continuing to enjoy the benefits of office.Banerjee also argued that the rebel camp does not yet have the numbers required to safely navigate the anti-defection law. Calling them “gaddars”, he accused the dissidents of being driven by a hunger for power.In a sharp attack on the BJP, Banerjee said, “You have the CM, ED, CBI and other powers, but I have ‘Maa, Maati, Maanush’, my party, my party workers, and the people of West Bengal.”Read the latest news on the go.

Not definitive, but 197 districts are identified as most vulnerable,” said Chouhan, as reported by the news agency PTI. ​The El Nino phenomenon is being assessed through weekly meetings held by the ministry. If conditions worsen, it has stored up necessary agricultural inputs like seeds to respond in time. “We have prepared a contingency plan for each state. We will leave no stone unturned to tackle this,” Chouhan added.El Nino, a climate phenomenon linked to poor monsoons and rainfall uncertainties, is a worry for this year.The southwest monsoon has been forecast at around 90% of the long-period average, a below-normal season, according to the IMD (India Meteorological Department).Crop risks could heighten if El Nino conditions intensify in the monsoon season’s latter half, officials warn.Kerala saw the southwest monsoon set in on June 4, which is now advancing northward. Estimated 20-30 per cent of the country is experiencing current coverage, full coverage is expected around July 15.Read the latest news on the go.
