Hitting out at the BJP-led government in Maharashtra over the rising prices of tur dal, Mumbai Congress Chief Sanjay Nirupam today said the party will organise a two-day protest from October 26 to highlight the issue.

Despite the government saying that the wholesale price of tur dal has come down after the raids against hoarders in Mumbai, tur dal still costs above Rs 200 per kg, Nirupam said. "Government said the price has come down to Rs 160. But, it is not so," he added.
