In a representation to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi brought up the long-pending issues of the state. Modi raised the issue of gas allocation to the power plants in Gujarat as already approved and said the injustice suffered by CNG vehicle owners in the form of frequent increase in CNG prices should be addressed. He also said the move that nearly 130 items, exempted from central excise duty, had been proposed to be covered under the excise net would impose an extra burden on people.
