Bengaluru: The 10-day Session of the State Legislature, the first Session for Basavaraj Bommai as the Chief Minister, began on a unique note in the State capital this morning, with Opposition Congress members coming to Vidhana Soudha in bullock carts as a mark of protest against rising fuel prices and increasing prices of other essential commodities.
Accusing the BJP Governments at the State and the Centre for failing to arrest the rising prices of petrol, diesel, cooking gas and other essential commodities, which has hit the common man hard amid the COVID-19 triggered crisis, the Congress legislators led by KPCC President D.K. Shivakumar and Opposition leader Siddharamaiah marched in a bullock-cart procession from KPCC Office on Queens Road to Vidhana Soudha.
