In a unique protest blaming the NDA government for price rise, Youth Congress members staged a skit at Sangolli Rayanna Circle here on Friday, in which a person wearing Prime Minister Narendra Modi mask sold vegetables, eggs and petrol at high price.
Raising slogans against Mr Modi, Youth Congress members asked where 'Achhe Din' has come, when the prices of essential commodities have gone up, causing serious trouble for common people.
"Price of onion has reached Rs 60 per kg, while the price of tomato is Rs 70, beans Rs 85, tur dal Rs 180, while one egg is also costing Rs eight. Before the elections, Mr Modi had assured to bring 'Achhe Din', and the present price rise shows that he gave only false assurances," protesters charged.
Later, they also burnt the effigy of Mr Modi.
Youth Congress leaders Shahjaman Mujahid, Rajat Ullagaddimath, Shivakumar Ramanagoudra, and others led the protest.
