Delhi BJP president Vijender Gupta alleged that the government had made life of people difficult due to price rise and the increase in price of diesel has broken common man's back.

Reacting to Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit's comment that "We live in the 21st century, so rise in price is justified", Gupta asked "Does living in the 21st century means that the government has the right to loot and people don't have right to live."

He said the BJP activists will stage the protest here tomorrow.
