Trinamool MP Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar said that the cooking gas is so expensive that one will have to resort to eating raw vegetables.
A Trinamool MP stood up in Lok Sabha, flashed a raw brinjal and then took a bite out of it during a discussion on the issue of price rise.
"I thank the chair for allowing a debate on price rise," Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar said, adding that it has taken a long time for even the debate to take place.
Coming after suspension of four Congress MPs and continued disruptions that forced two adjournments, the Lok Sabha started debating price rise today. The Congress MPs' suspension was also revoked.
"Does the government want us to eat raw vegetables," she asked. Then bit into a brinjal to show that she means that the cooking gas is so expensive that one will have to resort to this.
