Misnomer to campaign that fuel prices are at all-time high: Dharmendra Pradhan
NEW DELHI : Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Wednesday said petrol and diesel prices are governed by an international price mechanism and it was a misnomer to campaign in such a way that fuel prices are at an all-time high.
“In the last 300 days, there have been around 60 days of increase in price (and) in around 7 days in petrol and 21 days in diesel we have decreased the price. And for almost 250 days we have not increased or decreased prices… So, it’s a misnomer to campaign in that way that it is all-time high,” he told Rajya Sabha.
Wrong to claim that fuel prices are at all-time high, Dharmendra Pradhan says in Rajya Sabha Pradhan said the government reduced the Central Excise duty on petrol and diesel by Rs 2 per litre with effect from 4 October, 2017. File image of Dharmendra Pradhan. PIB
