"It is Diwali. Inflation is at its height. It is not a joke. Wish Modi government had a sensitive heart towards the public," said the Congress MP in a tweet in Hindi, in an apparent reference to increase in fuel prices.
दिवाली है।

महंगाई चरम पर है।
व्यंग्य की बात नहीं है।
काश मोदी सरकार के पास जनता के लिए एक संवेदनशील दिल होता।
Gandhi has been attacking the ruling BJP government over the rise in prices of petrol and diesel and accusing it of "tax extortion".
On Monday, the Congress leader without naming the Centre, in a tweet had said, "Beware of pickpockets! #TaxExtortion."
