The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) led Telangana Government opposed the Centre’s decision of hiking the prices of LPG Gas Cylinders, in India.

In effect from the 1st of March, the Government of India and oil marketing companies hiked domestic LPG cylinders by Rs. 50.  Opposing the same, the K. Chandrashekar Rao led BRS Government decided to hit the roads and stage demonstrations across Telangana.  The protest would be carried out on the 2nd and the 3rd of March.

In this regard, Mr. K.T. Rama Rao, the Information Technology and Urban Development Minister of Telangana asked the concerned officials to ensure demonstrations in mandals, districts, constituencies and headquarters.

The BRS is the first party to take up cudgels against the BJP Government at the Centre demanding to withdraw the price hike.

While the domestic cylinder price has been increased by Rs 50, commercial cylinders have become costlier by Rs 350. With the latest hike, the domestic LPG cylinder price, which was Rs 400 before the Narendra Modi-led BJP government came to power, now costs Rs 1,155.  

BRS working president and Minister KTR called upon the party cadre including Ministers, legislators and other leaders to organise demonstrations in all Mandal, constituency and district headquarters as well as urban areas.
