According to a statement by Congress General Secretary and Communication Incharge Jairam Ramesh, the party’s statewide protest against the present administration’s what it called “anti-people” policies on August 5 had a significant impact on the populace.
Ramesh claimed that the BJP government’s nervousness over its inability to rein in spiralling inflation and unemployment is only highlighted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s attempt to characterise legitimate protest as “black magic.”
