Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 20: Former Minister & President DCC Kathua Dr Manohar Lal Sharma today stated that the steep increase in petrol, diesel and gas prices was unprecedented and inhumane. “The Central government is exploiting common people by a continuous increase in excise taxes. It is a matter of great shame that the Central government is extracting Rs 32.98 and Rs 31.93 of excise taxes on every litre of petrol and diesel respectively.
Further he said that common people are badly hit by inflation. Petrol and diesel prices are increasing continuously despite the low prices of crude oil in the international market," Petrol and diesel prices on Monday were hiked for the seventh day in a row as a rally in international oil prices took retail rates in India to new highs. The cooking gas cylinder prices have increased by Rs 75 within the last 14 days.
In last "We demand that the increased prices should be withdrawn with immediate effect and the increase in excise duty should be rolled back to provide relief to the masses suffering from inflation and recession. |
