The Democratic Left Unity has demanded the resignation of Commerce Minister Tipu Munshi and Food Minister Sadhan Chandra Majumder for failing to control commodity prices. Coalition leaders have said that with the help of the Commerce Minister and the Food Minister and the syndicate of trade union leaders, the unbearable rise in prices of daily necessities has made people's lives difficult.
To get rid of this situation, a new honest minister has to be appointed excluding the commerce minister and the food minister. If these two ministers are not removed, the people will think that the government is involved in manipulating the prices of goods. The leaders said this at a rally of the Democratic Left Unity in front of the National Press Club on Wednesday. The rally was held in protest of rising prices of essential commodities including rice, sugar and oil. Haroon Aur Rashid and others. The leaders said that the government has made a joke with middle and low income people by increasing the price of rice, sugar and oil.
The present government has turned into a government of unscrupulous merchants. These unscrupulous merchants are controlling the market. The Commerce Minister and the Food Minister are working hard to develop their trade. Showing people thumbs up. The leaders of the merchants' association are making thousands of crores of rupees illegally by holding the people hostage as they have ministers on their side. And poor people are being forced to buy necessities at high prices. Addressing the Prime Minister, the leaders said, "If you fail to run the country, resign now." Transfer power to the people.
