प्रजा महंगाई से त्रस्त
आज, लोगों को ज़रूरत का सामान खरीदने से पहले भी दस बार सोचना पड़ रहा है। इन तकलीफों के लिए सिर्फ प्रधानमंत्री ज़िम्मेदार हैं।

‘Nothing To Do With State Or 2024 Elections’
Senior Congress leader and party secretary general in-charge of communications Jairam Ramesh said that today's ‘Mehangai par Halla Bol’ has nothing to do with upcoming state elections or the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
