Jammu: Claiming the Centre was not doing enough to bring down the prices of petrol or diesal, a senior Congress leader Sunday appealed to the people of Jammu and Kashmir to support the nation-wide strike call given by his party over rising fuel prices in the country.

“We appeal to all concerned citizens and organisations to observe a voluntary bandh (strike) from 9 am to 3 pm tomorrow to protest against the unprecedented hike on petrol, diesel, domestic gas and other essential commodities,” AICC secretary co-incharge Jammu and Kashmir affairs Shakeel Ahmad Khan told reporters here. 

He said a nationwide call for ‘Bharat bandh’ has been given by the Congress and other like-minded parties.
