He targeted PM over rising prices which has made life difficult for the poor.

"My 7th question to the prime minister. People were hit by unkept jumlas, noteban's loot and GST that took away all the earnings. The rest was taken away by rising prices” The Congress vice president had earlier hit out at Modi over various issues through his 'A question a day' series.
