Fuel price hike: NDA mulls Bharat bandh

By extending support to Yadavs proposal,the BJP also signalled that the strain in its ties with the JDU was over.

Hoping to anchor the Oppositions offensive,Yadav said: Everybody has opposed the move,every party has dubbed it as a cruel blow to the common man. Notwithstanding their ideological and political differences,all parties should come together and oppose this hike in the interest of the people.

Yadav said he would reach out to the Left and other parties in the Opposition,but termed the protests by UPA allies like Trinamool Congress as drama. They are sharing the fruits of power and at the same time they are opposing the decision, he said.
