Police had refused permission to hold it in Delhi citing COVID-19 guidelines
The Congress announced on Wednesday that it would be holding a public rally against inflation in Jaipur on December 12, after the Delhi Police refused permission to hold the rally in the national capital citing COVID-19 guidelines.
All-India Congress Committee (AICC) general secretary K.C. Venugopal, in a statement, said the Indian National Congress was neither going to be intimidated by the “BJP's tactics” nor was it going to withdraw even an inch from its age-old commitment to raise issues concerning the people.
“It has been decided that the 'Mehangai Hatao' rally will be organised in Jaipur, Rajasthan, on December 12, 2021 itself. The party will keep raising the voice of the people and keep fighting their battles against this insensitive, arrogant and crony-driven Government till it takes corrective measures and provides the much needed relief from inflation,” he said.
Everyone talks about the Airport Metro, but one look at the pillars and completion seems nowhere in sight. Meanwhile, a faster, cheaper, roomier alternative called the Suburban Rail Airport Corridor is finally getting off the drawing board. This dedicated corridor with its specialised coaches will link the airport to vast stretches of Bengaluru, where the metro connection is still years away.
