00:00The BJP is protesting, ladies and gentlemen. New updates that are coming in.
00:05Karnataka fair hike that has been reported.
00:07Let's go across to details that are coming in.
00:10There's been a dairy product hike. There's been a bus hike as well.
00:13It's not looking good, of course, for the middle class, especially in Karnataka
00:17during a festive season as the year is coming to end.
00:19Nagar Jundwair, Karnat is on the ground. Over to you, Nagar.
00:26Pooja, in fact, the leader of opposition is here giving roses to the commuters inside the bus stand.
00:31If I can get to the frame right now, there's a lot of chaos also because it's an aerospace and
00:36too many media people.
00:37But you can see commuters getting roses from the BJP leaders as well.
00:42Let me try getting voices also here and from the BJP.
00:47This is a mark of symbolic protest that they're doing,
00:49that roses are being given out, distributed to the commuters.
00:52And they're saying that it's a symbolic protest because the government has gone bankrupt.
00:58You can see our Ashok, leader of opposition, who's giving the roses to the commuters also.
01:04Let me get in a word from our Ashok right now as well.
01:09Just a second, if I can ask people to just make space for me.
01:16Sir, today you're giving roses to the people of Karnataka in the bus.
01:27What do you have to say, sir?
01:29So, Karnataka government is a papar.
01:33Show the rose that you're giving.
01:37Karnataka government becomes the papar.
01:40There is no, fill the tank to bus tank, there is no diesel.
01:47So, papar, that's why they rise the hike.
01:51In the Karnataka history, first time, 40%.
01:54The Congress government is taking the 40% commission.
01:59Now, they're rising 40%.
02:0260%.
02:03Huh?
02:0460%.
02:0460%.
02:05Bus hike.
02:06Chief Minister is blaming central government, saying they increase the diesel prices.
02:10Diesel price.
02:13That tax coming, highest tax come to state government, not central government.
02:19If diesel price is high, that highest tax comes to state government, not central government.
02:27So, let us withdraw the tax.
02:31State government have a right to withdraw it.
02:35So, highest commission, highest profit you want in the diesel.
02:40So, you are not reducing.
02:42Okay.
02:42Thank you, sir.
02:43In fact, let me take you to the other here.
02:46Leader of Opposition, Mr. Chalwadi, is giving roses also, sir.
02:49If you can, if you are giving roses to the people, sir.
02:53Sir, there's a person waiting for you.
02:55Not the ladies, we are giving the roses.
02:58It's okay, you can give it.
03:00It's a mark of protest, you can give it.
03:01Yeah, it is a mark of protest.
03:03I speak to her now.
03:05Madam, her, you have to pay attention to the people.
03:09One second.
03:16In fact, he is saying that the money from her husband's pocket is being snatched and given
03:22as the bus price hike.
03:44So, what we see in Karnataka is a full-on political showdown of the price hike and the BJP, of
03:51course,
03:51leading with that opportunity, we'll be tracking all that and more.
