“BJP appreciates oppn’s maturity at all-party meeting,” says NV Subhash; dismisses LPG & fuel price rise rumours

He also dismissed rumours circulating on social media about a rise in LPG and petroleum prices.

Speaking to ANI, Subhash said the meeting saw participation from almost all political parties and reflected a constructive spirit. He added that there has been “a hue and cry” by some Opposition members claiming that the PM-led government does not allow them to speak.”Yesterday, the NDA government called for a non-party meeting in which almost all parties have participated under the chairmanship of Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, along with Kiren Rijiju. The maturity that has been shown by the opposition parties, the BJP appreciates that. The opposition parties have been making a hue and cry in the parliament, saying that the PM Modi-led government is not allowing them to speak. The government of India, under the leadership of the PM, has invited all the political parties, except the TMC, which deliberately did not participate, showing their immaturity,” he said.

On issues related to fuel prices, Subhash said, “We are sure that all the prices of LPG have not been increased. The petroleum prices have not been increased. It is only some kind of fear by some people, especially on social media, creating a shortage of LPG, gas, and petroleum, which is not true.”On Wednesday, the meeting on the ongoing West Asia crisis, chaired by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, was attended by several opposition leaders.
