Puducherry Chief Minister V Narayanasamy today said the BJP-led government at the Centre, which completed four years in office, has inflicted "severe hardships" on people through its "ill conceived policies."
On the recent hike in fuel prices, the senior Congress leader said, "rise in prices of petrol and diesel has come to hit the common man and people are up in arms across the country clearly expressing their wish that the NDA should no longer hold reins of administration."
Taking a jibe at Lt Governor Kiran Bedi, Narayanasamy said, "She is completing two years in office on May 29 and she had already expressed her wish some months ago that she would demit office after completing two years in office."
