Petrol and diesel price rise continues unabated. On Wednesday, once again the fuel prices were hiked. To protest against the rampant fuel price increase, Congress leader Randeep Surjewala shared a meme on Twitter. “Dheere-Dheere Keemate Badhana Hai, Hadd Se Gujur Jana Hai…”, the caption of the meme read.
Surjewala termed the fuel price hike to be ‘fuel loot’. He wrote on the microblogging site that Modi government has hit the century of petrol as the fuel was now being sold above Rs 100 across several cities in the country including UP’s capital Lucknow, Patna and Bhopal.
Modi Govt hits “CENTURY” of Petrol….

• Lucknow ₹100.86/litre

One litre of petrol was available for Rs 115.88 in Mumbai. In Bhopal, one litre of petrol was costing Rs 113.32. In Patna also, per litre of petrol was costing Rs 111.68.
Randeep Surjewala said: “Daily attack..Daily extortion..Daily exploitation..by Modi Govt on common man’s budget continues unabated!”
“The 8th increase has taken the #PetrolDieselPriceHike today to 5.60/litre. Is there an end date to this “loot”? Is PM unaccountable to people? Is there an answer?” he added.

हर रोज़ महंगाई का ‘गुरिल्ला हमला’ जारी,
कब रुकेगी ये रोज़ सुबह-सुबह की ‘पॉकेटमारी’?9 वें दिन भी फ़िर पेट्रोल-डीज़ल ₹0.80?
9 दिनों की 8 किस्तों में अब कुल#PetrolDieselPriceHike ₹5.60/L?

This morning, the domestic retail selling prices of petrol and diesel were increased for the eighth time in nine days.
Oil Marketing Companies(OMCs) revise the transportation fuel cost based on various factors such as rupee to US dollar exchange rate, cost of crude oil and demand of fuel amongst others.
Resultantly, the final price includes excise duty, value added tax and dealer’s commission.
