Petrol prices increased by Rs.7.5 all of a sudden yesterday in India!!!

It's really a sad news for all indians. this will affect indian people who are all suffered from many problems. The government should consider people problem and should reduce the petrol price.they can easily escape from the by poitning out economic condition. but they have to do something to reduce the petrol price.

Oh yes.I missed the queue yesterday.I came to know about this only this morning. Already my pockets are burning to pay the current petrol price.Now,its still more.Hope the government would do something to cut down the price again.I saw in news that some political parties are going in for strike and opposition to the governments decision regarding this issue.Let us see what they can do.

Absolute stupidity! In both the ways, even if they increase to Rs 10 also nobody is there to question and we poor Great Indians are habituated by suffering and there are these donkeys to VOTE to our notorious NETAS and this will keep going and will go on. This is our country - anyone can do anything, by the by this is the so called DEMOCRACY - people by people for the people .... For whom the bell rings??

As value of dollar vs Indian Rupee is at the peak there were hints of the price rise in last few days. As about 50% of petrol price is Central and State taxes, Govt should consider to lower the percentage or change the pattern of taxes on petrol. Without giving any botheration about sufferings of people Govt is enjoying the huge part of taxes in petrol price.

Hi friends... here my my lot friends are expressing there views against the petrol price rise. I think every body is blaming the government and saying that they will never consider the feeling of poor Indians. But i thinks in different way. I love and respect India very much and i want to see our country in more height. So i think every body should read this post and understand what is the real matter behind this. let me play devil's advocate and temper down some of the most vehement arguments against this increase. I agree that this fuel hike will disturb the family budget of the Indians. In the current petrol price, around Rs 26 is the tax payed to central and state government. The most of the earning for the government is from this crude oil tax. So if you take away some tax revenue the gap between income and expenditure of government — a wide one already — will widen further. And it will negatively affect the growth of our country. Already government spends a lot of money just paying the oil companies for their taking losses on diesel and kerosene. In effect, a portion of what it collects as tax on that fuel goes back into paying for the losses incurred on these fuels. One point should be noted is our central government is already taking measures to cut there expenses by reducing the allewences to ministers like cutting down travelling allewences, reducing foreign trips, reducing government functions etc and the people is blaming the central government. With all these taxes government collects, most of it is payed to poor farmers and below poverty line peoples in the name of food subsidy and lot more. Do you people want to cut all these? I hope every Indians wants and love to see India in new heights. And so i ask can't you suffer at least a this much for the growth of our country?
