PTI”]  [/caption] New Delhi: Congress today downplayed the Trinamool Congress MPs meeting Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to register their protest over the latest hike in petrol prices. “We deny all negative and doomsday scenarios predicted by BJP and opposition MPs anxious to destabilise and grab power. We do not accept their interpretation of the concerns expressed by a valuable ally”, party spokesman Abhishek Singhvi said. His reaction came close on the heels of Trinamool Congress MPs warning that any increase in future would make the party reconsider its future ties with the UPA government. Trinamool Congress is the second largest constituent of the UPA after Congress, with 18 MPs. PTI
