"There is no difference among us on the issue of price rise. Entire Opposition was one on this issue in the last session and will remain one in the upcoming session too," the convenor of the BJP-led NDA said at a press conference in New Delhi.

Price rise is the most significant issue, he said. "No party is leading it (the protest over price rise). The issue itself is the leader. The recent Bharat bandh on the issue of price rise was unprecedented in which people were at the forefront and political parties were behind them," Yadav said.
