This will increase the difficulties of the people who are already perturbed due to inflation, unemployment and the worst law and order situation. It will be better if the government pays attention to people's welfare," she tweeted in Hindi.
यूपी बीजेपी सरकार द्वारा पेट्रोल व डीजल की कीमत में भारी वृद्धि महंगाई बढ़ाने व करोड़ों गरीब व मध्यम वर्गीय परिवारों के पेट पर लात मारने वाला क्रूर कदम है। बदतर क़ानून-व्यवस्था, महंगाई व बेरोज़गारी से त्रस्त जनता का दुःख और बढ़ेगा। सरकार जनहित पर ध्यान केन्द्रित करे तो बेहतर है।

The price of diesel has been hiked by Rs 2.5, while for a litre of petrol people will now have to pay Re 1 more in the state. The prices have gone up since Monday midnight.
2. अपराध नियंत्रण व कानून-व्यवस्था में बुरी तरह से विफलता के फलस्वरूप यहाँ यूपी में जंगलराज बीजेपी सरकार की गलत नीतियों का परिणाम है। इसके लिए अफसरों को बलि का बकरा बनाने से पहले बीजेपी को अपराधियों को हर प्रकार का शह व संरक्षण देना बंद करना होगा, जो जनहित में बहुत जरूरी है।

In another tweet, Mayawati said, "The failure of the BJP government in maintaining law and order and containing crime is behind the current situation of 'jungle raj' in Uttar Pradesh. Before making officials scapegoat, BJP should stop giving protection to criminals. That will be in people's welfare." (ANI)
