NEW DELHI: After slamming the Modi government for the US “permission” to India for Russian oil imports, Congress Saturday attacked the BJP over the comment from American treasury secretary that India has been a “good actor” for agreeing to stop imports from Russia on US demand – calling it evidence of PM Modi’s “cowardice”.AICC spokesperson Jairam Ramesh said, “The US treasury secretary has given the Modi govt its certificate for faithfully following President Trump’s orders. Does anything more need to be said about how cowardly and compromised the self-proclaimed 56-inch chest has become?” Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge lashed out at the Modi govt over the increase in LPG prices, saying the govt all these years refused to give the benefit of low international crude prices to the consumers, but has chosen to increase the prices now.

AICC spokesman Pawan Khera said petroleum minister Hardeep Singh Puri said on Friday that “our priority is to ensure availability of affordable and sustainable fuel for our citizens, and we are doing it comfortably”, and within hours, the government hiked the LPG cylinder prices. “Never believe a word of what Hardeep Singh Puri says,” he added.
