Congress state president Arun Yadav said: "People are hit hard by the soaring prices this festive season. Poor and middle class people are hit most but Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan are silent on the issues of rising prices."

"Their silence shows that they have surrendered to the black marketeers," he added.

He said pigeon peas were being sold at Rs.140 per kilo and onions at Rs 80 a kilo.
