New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday lambasted the Centre saying that inflation is at its peak around Diwali and wished the government had a sensitive heart to look at the troubles faced by the common man.
His statement comes amid rising fuel prices. Petrol and diesel prices remained constant today after constantly rising for seven consecutive days.
"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," Gandhi tweeted in Hindi.
