MUMBAI: Targeting the Narendra Modi-led executive on the Centre over the gasoline worth hike, opposition Congress on Wednesday sought to understand why the petrol-diesel rates have long past up despite a fall in international crude oil prices.
The birthday celebration stated it might hang a protest within the city on Thursday over the rising gasoline prices.
"In April 2014, during the Congress-led UPA rule, crude prices were USD 110 per barrel. Yet, petrol was Rs 80 and diesel Rs 63 per litre then," senior Congress leader Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil stated.
"The common man has only one question today - when the crude prices are USD 70 per barrel, why is it that petrol prices are Rs 85 per litre and diesel Rs 73 here now?" the Leader of Opposition in Maharashtra Legislative Assembly stated.
Mumbai Congress president Sanjay Nirupam stated the citizens of the city are paying the best possible within the nation for petrol and diesel.
"We will hold a protest in the city tomorrow against the fuel price hike," he stated.
