Udupi, 8 Sep 2013: The district unit of Welfare Party of India (WFI) staged a sit-in in front of Clock Tower, here on Saturday September 7, against union government over the hike in prices of essential commodities which has adversely affected the common man to sustain living. 

The protesters alleged that union government is responsible for steady fall in rupee against US $ which was due to faulty economic policies and lack of long range monetary plans.  The union government has been focusing on corporate sector without a little regard for the plight of common man, alleged WFI.

 

 

WFI urges the union government to take early actions on hoarders and black marketers of farm produce to stabilize the prices of essential commodities, to release the grains that are over stocked in state-owned stores, to stabilize the constant hiking of petroleum products and other effective measures to bring normalcy in retail sector in the country.

WPI state president Akbar Ali, Udupi district president Anwar Ali Kaup, district chief secretary Abdul Aziz, Udupi district vice president Dinakar Ucchil, organizing secretary Asif G D, treasurer Riyaz Ahmed, secretary Firoze Manna, Janaseva Co-operative society director Hussein Kodi Bengre and others were present on the occasion.
