Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Acquitted in Journalist Murder Case, West Bengal CM Announces Protest Against LPG Price Hike The Punjab and Haryana High Court has overturned the conviction of Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, also known as Baba Ram Rahim, in the murder case of journalist Ram Chander Chhatrapati. The court's decision to set aside the conviction has sparked significant legal and public debate, with supporters of the accused celebrating the ruling while critics argue it undermines judicial integrity. The case, which has drawn widespread attention due to its high-profile nature, involved allegations of the journalist's death being linked to the accused's alleged criminal activities. Separately, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has announced a protest against the recent increase in LPG gas prices, which has risen by INR 60 for domestic cylinders and INR 115 for commercial ones effective from March 7. Banerjee urged citizens to join the protest, emphasizing the financial burden on households and calling for government intervention to address the price hike. The decision to raise cylinder prices has faced backlash from various political parties and civil society groups, with demands for immediate policy changes to alleviate the impact on low-income families. The LPG price adjustment has also raised concerns about the affordability of essential commodities, particularly in a state where economic disparities are already pronounced. Protests are expected to be organized across the state, with participants advocating for subsidies or alternative pricing mechanisms to ease the burden on consumers. Meanwhile, the acquittal of Ram Rahim Singh continues to fuel discussions about the legal system's handling of high-profile cases and the broader implications for justice and accountability.#gurmeet_ram_rahim_singh #mamata_banerjee #west_bengal #afc_women_asian_cup_2026 #lpg_price_hike
