Fuel price hike is Modi govt's anniversary gift to people, Omar Abdullah says in sardonic tweets
Srinagar, May 16: Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah took a sarcastic swipe at the Union government hiking fuel prices, saying the move was "to celebrate the first year of good days".
"To celebrate the 1st year of the 'good days' (Acche din) government, please enjoy another huge fuel price hike. You are welcome," Omar tweeted.
Modi Govt's second steep hike within 15 days: Petrol price up by Rs 3.13, diesel by Rs 2.71/L
"I love how the people lecturing me on global oil price & dollar fluctuation didn't remember any of this during the UPA government," the National Conference leader added.
