"Such Vikas'": Rahul Gandhi's Zinger Over Unprecedented Fuel Price Hike

Taking a spin on the government's "Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas (with all, development for all)" slogan, Rahul Gandhi said that the condition of "Vikas (development)" is such that if there is no increase in fuel price for a single day, that becomes a bigger news.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today took a dig at the Centre amid rising fuel prices in the country. Taking a spin on the government's "Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas (with all, development for all)" slogan, Mr Gandhi said that the condition of "Vikas (development)" is such that if there is no increase in fuel price for a single day, that becomes a bigger news. "Such is the condition of Modi government's vikas (development) that if the price of petrol and diesel does not increase any day, then it becomes a bigger news!" the Congress MP said in a tweet.
