Rahul Gandhi targets Modi Govt over Fuel Price Hike

New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi again attacked the Center on Sunday over the rising prices of petrol and diesel and gas. Rahul Gandhi tweeted, "The central government looted in broad daylight from both hands… Number one, heavy tax recovery on gas-diesel-petrol. Number two, selling PSU-PSB to friends, its share, employment and facilities from the public Snatch.''

Rahul Gandhi targets Govt:

So far this year, the price of petrol and diesel has increased by Rs 7.46 and Rs 7.60 per liter. In many cities, the price of petrol has become 100 rupees a liter.

Rising fuel prices are affecting demand conditions in India. According to official figures, the country saw a sharp decline in fuel consumption for the second consecutive month in February.
