You will take the bag and run away to those places where other Modis are. The public will continue to suffer.”Petrol and diesel prices were hiked for the fifth day in a row on 31 October, pushing rates to their highest levels across the country.Yuva Sena, the youth wing of one of the ruling parties of Maharashtra – Shiv Sena, will be taking out a statewide cycle rally to protest against the fuel price hike.Netizens have also reacted to the continuous spike in fuel prices.One Twitter user said: “Fuel prices have increased 24 times in October 2021.

The prices of petrol and diesel have been continuously rising. Petrol prices have soared above INR 100 ($1.33) per litre in almost every state in the country, while diesel prices have crossed that level in most of the states and Union Territories.

India’s main opposition party on Sunday slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government over a continuous increase in fuel prices.

Congress politician Digvijaya Singh, sharing a video of Modi on Twitter, said in Hindi: “Inflation is at all-time high, now Modi's government should be uprooted.”

ठीक कहा मोदी जी छोटा आप सोच ही नहीं सकते।महंगाई को भी आप इतना बढ़ाएँगे इतना बढ़ाएँगे कि रिकॉर्ड क़ायम कर जाएँगे।
सही सॉफ़्टवेयर डाला है प्रभु ने!
आप तो झोला टॉंग कर जहॉं और मोदी हैं चले जाएँगे।जनता भुगतती रहेगी।

Netizens have also reacted to the continuous spike in fuel prices.

One Twitter user said: “Fuel prices have increased 24 times in October 2021. It is the biggest achievement of ‘New India’ as fuel prices have not increased so much ever.”

#October2021 के महीने में 24 वीं बार महंगा हुआ #PetrolDiesel. अक्टूबर में #Petrol 7.70 रु और #Diesel 8.20 महंगा हुआ.
Note - #NewIndia की सबसे बड़ी उपलब्धि क्योंकि इतिहास में एक महीने में पेट्रोल डीजल के दाम कभी भी इतने नहीं बढ़े थे.

आप सब कुछ ठीक कह रहे होंगे पर मान्यवर भारत की जनता के लिए आज का समय अमृतकाल नहीं, बल्कि मृतकाल का प्रतीत हो रहा है जिस प्रकार से आप बढ़ती महँगाई और #PetrolDieselPriceHike पर चुप्पी साधे हुए हैं। जनता महँगाई से त्रस्त है, अभी भी समय है, चेत जाइये, वरना 2024 ज़्यादा दूर नहीं है।🙏

2014 से पहले भाजपा वालो का नारा था कि " बहुत हुई महँगाई की मार,
अबकी बार मोदी सरकार" सोचा आपको याद दिला दूँ क्योंकि साल 2021 जाने वाला है व महँगाई आसमान छू रही है औऱ भाजपा का ये नारा अब जनता के साथ किया गया भद्दा सा मजाक लगता है। #PetrolDieselPriceHike

And again.. no respite, even during festive season. Forget about reducing, people are forced to cherish days when prices are NOT increased! This is the new India. Thank you Modiji! @PMOIndia @narendramodi #PetrolDieselPriceHike #FuelPriceHike #abkiBaar200paar https://t.co/0UM2MSRCcM
