K. Babu, MLA and deputy leader of the Congress in the Assembly, has accused the State government of constantly shifting goalposts in the fuel price issue.
Addressing a press conference here on Wednesday, Mr. Babu reminded how the former Finance Minister Thomas Isaac had kept asking for the Centre to reduce prices before the State Government followed suit. For five years, the State Government managed without reducing prices by blaming the Centre.
“The present Finance Minister, K.N. Rajagopal, had wanted the Rajasthan Government led by the Congress to first reduce the price. Rajasthan Government has now reduced ₹4 for petrol and ₹5 for diesel. Where will the State government shift the goalpost to now,” Mr. Babu asked.
