Fuel Price Hike | Commuters React As Petrol Prices Near Rs 100 MarkAdded:
The price of petrol and diesel has once again been high in less than three days. The price is from 87 to 91 paise where right now at a petrol pump. We will try to show you the visuals of the current price that can be seen here at a petrol station in Delhi. The prices were in fact increased up to 91 paise per litre on Saturday that is today which is the third increase in less than 10 days.
Petrol price has been increased by 87 paise which has now pushed the price from 98.64 to 99.51 per litre. Diesel rates have gone up by 91 from ₹91.58 to 92.49.
This is the third increase in the rate since May 15 when state-owned oil companies started passing on elevated energy prices arising from the West Asia conflict in a calibrated manner. Now we have seen the price was hiked by ₹3 a litre on May 15.
Followed by a 90 paise increase on May 19.
All these rates have now gone up by almost ₹5 per litre. Will also try to speak to some people. The poor feel that it will only affect their pockets. There will be no impact on the rich.
Whatever the poor have to give, they have to give from their own pocket. Prices continue to rise. The poor man is dying. What else will the poor do? Now it has become such that people are forced to walk or will be forced to buy their own electric vehicles.
I will just say this much. Is it having a huge impact on inflation? The price should not have fallen so quickly.
What does it mean to be so high? This will empty your pocket and the average price of petrol will also fall. If expensive things like diesel and petrol come into business then it will make a difference, so it is good to have trouble in that. Melody is eating. The rates are increasing and the salaries are not increasing at all. Inflation is just increasing.
So what impact is this having on the monthly budget? Expenses are not being met. There is definitely a problem, ma'am. Now tell me, three or four have increased. ₹4 is not a small amount. The government should think about everyone.
Everybody is facing problems. Actually what happens is that we are going up and down every day and our work is in the field.
So, Sir, for someone who works in the field, it means a lot, you can understand that it is a painful situation.
So the government should take action because after all the public will be troubled in this way.
They should think about all this.
