Petrol price rise c/o UPA Govt. kills `Aam Aadmi`

Petrol price rise c/o UPA Govt. kills `Aam Aadmi`

In 2004 after UPA I came into power at the Center, price of petrol had risen at regular intervals and as a result pressure regularly mounted on the common people (Aam Aadmi) of the country. 

Incidentally during the tenure of UPA II,the “HIKE” Saga continued as  petroleum price was decontrolled on June 26, 2010. Central Government did this with a clear intention to shrug off their responsibilities. There were regular protests from the MP's of All India Trinamool Congress in both houses of the Parliament, but all protests went in vain. As a mark of protest All India Trinamool Congress withdrew their support from UPA II on September 21, 2012.




Here is a statistics of how petrol price increased during the tenure of UPA I & UPA II
