Former Union minister and Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on Wednesday took a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the Centre’s resolution to chop LPG costs, saying when Opposition events give aid to the poor, it turns into “revri” tradition.
“PM ji, Rs 400 relief for Ujjwala is not “revri” culture? This is for poor households I guess. Glad you have remembered them. Am sure you will think of them more as 2024 approaches. But when Opposition parties give relief it becomes ‘revri’ culture. Jai ho, ” Sibal wrote on X (previously twitter).
Sibal’s feedback got here as a veiled reference to Prime Minister’s final 12 months’s remarks that some state authorities’s had been indulging in “revri” tradition to safe votes.
The Union Cabinet assembly chaired by the Prime Minister on Tuesday had introduced a Rs 200 lower within the costs of cooking fuel cylinders. The beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana will get this subsidy on high of the prevailing subsidy out there to them.
