Mamata Banerjee said gas prices have been rising for a long time. Although the central government made several promises, they were not fulfilled. Ordinary people are facing a lot of problem due to the high fuel and cooking gas prices.

In this situation, Mamata said that the procession will continue with symbolic gas cylinders to reduce the pressure on the public. The CM has directed TMC activists across the state to hold cylinder procession.
