In the wake of a sharp rise in prices of petrol and diesel in the country, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi took a swipe at the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government on Wednesday, saying that “inflation is at its peak during Diwali”.
Taking to Twitter, Rahul Gandhi wrote in Hindi, which loosely translated to English reads, “It’s Diwali. Inflation is at its peak. It’s not a joke. I wish the Modi government had a sensitive heart for the public.”
