Protesters in Kanpur gathered on the banks of the River Ganges to protest against the recent hike in fuel prices.
The protesters held posters and shouted anti-Narendra Modi slogans.
They also threw onions in the river as recently their prices too have risen.
Petrol and diesel prices were hike d on Monday by Rs 1.69 and Rs. 0.50 per litre respectively by the Narendra Modi led BJP Government at the Centre, while onion prices have continued to see a surge upwards.
To add to that, the Centre came in for a scathing attack from the opposition over hiking railway fares, but had to partially roll back later on.
