New Delhi, Dec 16 (Inditop.com) Demanding control on the prices of essential commodities, MPs from the Left parties and the Samajwadi Party (SP) Wednesday staged a sit-in at Parliament House.

They would continue the protests both inside and outside parliament, the leaders said.
“We will take the issue to the streets. We will compel the government to change its policy, otherwise we will change this anti-people government,” said Mulayam Singh Yadav.
