The first increase was announced on June 7th and today on June 27th it has been 21 consecutive days the prices of oil are going up. Common people are talking about the same. In all this, none of the Celebrities spoke up.
A few Bollywood stars including Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar, Anupam Kher, and Vivek Agnihotri who tweeted about the high fuel price a few years ago are quiet now. These tweets are of the time when Congress-led UPA government was in central.
