The senior Congress leader said, “The inflation and prices of fuel which are at an all-time high have made the life of a common man miserable. Our personal talks are also being taped (tapped). Such misdeeds can only be done by Modiji and (Amit Shah).”
As per reports, while the Youth Congress leader was using such words, senior Congress leader RPCC chief Govind Singh Dotasara was present.
It is imperative to note that Rajasthan is one of the states that charge the highest rates of VAT on fuel prices as per data submitted by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas to Parliament on July 19. This further causes the fuel rates to inflate said the report.

After Congress youth workers went shirtless in Delhi to protest against the Modi government, Bengaluru Congress workers gathered outside Vidhana Soudha to stage a demonstration.
Sharing images of the protest Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president DK Shivakumar Tweeted, “Our democracy has been repeatedly assaulted by BJP Govt, with latest being #Pegasus spying attack, showing how morally bankrupt this govt is! Protested against the same at Mahatma Gandhi’s Statue at Vidhana Soudha before laying siege at Governor house, alongside Congress leaders.”
