BHUBANESWAR/CUTTACK: Socialist Unity Centre of India (Communist) Party workers
stopped Jodhpur- Puri express today in Cuttack Railway station to protest
against increased railway fare which will be effective from January 22. They
were led by SUCI(C)’s Cuttack District Committee organiser Khageswar Sethi, Babi Balabantray, Sasmita
Mohanty, Deepak Das, Bhagyarabi Das, Sipra Mohanty and Sasmita Sahoo. Following
the arrest of party SUCI(C) workers the train service became normal.
Samajwadi Party workers staged
‘Rail Rok’ demanding withdrawal of railway fare hike and controlling of
essential commodities at the railway station here on Monday. The party workers stopped
New Delhi-bound Rajdhani Express for almost two hours protesting the hike.
Party
State president Rabi Behera
addressing the workers said diesel de-regularisation would give rise to price
hike and the aam aadmi would be the victim. Due to high inflation, the price of
essential commodities like vegetables, fruits, dal, oil and sugar is beyond the
reach of the poor, he added.
