Mumbai, August 30: The Bharatiya Janata Party government at the Centre was forced to reduce the prices of domestic cooking gas cylinders thanks to the I.N.D.I.A. conclaves, the third of which will be held here on Aug. 31-Sep. 01, claimed Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut here on Wednesday. He said that after the National Opposition bloc meetings in Patna and Bengaluru, the BJP was compelled to slash the rates of gas cylinders, and even West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee held a similar view.
