DIBRUGARH: Activists of All Students’ Union (AASU) on Wednesday staged protest outside Dibrugarh DC office against the rising prices of essential commodities. The members of the students’ union raised slogan against the BJP government for failing to curb the skyrocketing price hike of essential commodities.

“The BJP government both in centre and state have turned a blind eye to the increasing prices of essential commodities like rice, pulses, vegetables, petrol and diesel which have greatly impacted the common masses,” said AASU Dibrugarh district president Abani Kumar Gogoi.

He said, “Due to the skyrocketing price hike, the people are facing problems to run their families. It is their duty to curb price rise in order to give respite to the common people. The present government has failed to do so. We demand the government led by Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma to take necessary steps to curb the price hike of essential goods and commodities.”
