Warring rides bullock cart to cast vote in Muktsar

Bathinda: Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring on Tuesday rode a bullock cart for 1 km from his house in Muktsar's Amar Colony to the BEd College on Chak Bir Road to cast his vote in the municipal council elections. The move was a symbolic protest against the BJP-led central govt over rising fuel prices."It was a message that people are the real sufferers of the nearly Rs 7.5 per litre fuel price hike in the last 11 days. People may have to return to old modes of transport as they become unable to afford four-wheelers or two-wheelers," said Warring, who was accompanied by his wife. MSID:: 131327763 413 |
