Congress President Sonia Gandhi has accused the government of "profiting off people's misery and suffering" by increasing fuel prices. in her letter written to the PM, she said,"Fuel prices are at a historic and unsustainable high. In fact, petrol has breached the Rs 100/litre mark in many parts of the country. The surging price of diesel has added to the escalating woes of millions of farmers," Mrs Gandhi added that these prices have been increased despite moderate prices of international crude oil. She said the crude oil price is nearly half of what it was during Congress-led government's tenure at the centre. Sonia Gandhi said India is witnessing a systematic erosion of jobs, wages and household incomes. "The middle class and those at the margins are struggling."
"I fail to understand how any government can justify such thoughtless and insensitive measures directly at the cost of our people."
