"The raging inflation in pulses, vegetables, cereals, sugar, atta and other items of daily use had caused immense hardships for the indigent masses making even two square meals difficult for them," JKNPP chairman and former minister Harsh Dev Singh said in a statement here.
"Added to this was the steep hike and rapidly surging prices of petroleum products due to huge levies and cess imposed by the Central government which had a cascading effect on the prices of all commodities," Singh said.
"Be it the issue of employment, public service commission selections, Lakhanpur toll plaza, Dogra certificate, one constitution and one flag, Article 370 and state subjects to West Pakistani Refugees, the BJP leaders had made one compromise after the other thus making a mockery of the great sacrifices made by its past leadership," Singh alleged.
