Delivering the protest address, MP Nalin Kumar Kateel said that the UPA government has made life miserable for the common man by hiking petrol price to Rs. 7.50 per litre.

Stating that the UPA government came to power promising that it would serve the poor, but now they have made the common man’s life difficult. He warned that the BJP will stage intense nationwide protests if the government fails to bring down the price of petrol.

He said that the PM should resign immediately as he has proved unfit for his post.

K. Monappa Bhandary, the district BJP leader, Shrikar Prabhu, and many others spoke on the occasion.
