Congress General Secretary K.C. Venugopal criticized the Central Government for failing to address public issues, specifically highlighting the surge in petrol and diesel prices. Due to the West Asian conflict affecting crude oil supplies, petrol and diesel prices have risen by over 7 rupees in the last two weeks. In Chennai, petrol has reached ₹107.77 and diesel ₹99.55 per liter. Venugopal also expressed concern over the rising unemployment rate affecting the youth across the country. https://www.dinamani.com/india/2026/May/25/the-government-failed-to-resolve-the-peoples-issues-kc-venugopal #creator program
