NeNew Delhi: Consumers have been worried about the steady rise in petrol and diesel prices in the country since the rise in crude oil prices in the international market. Today, petrol prices in Rajasthan have risen to more than Rs 100 for the first time. In Sriganganagar, Rajasthan, petrol was sold for Rs 100.13. In Madhya Pradesh and parts of Maharashtra, petrol has also been sold for more than Rs 100. In Bhubaneswar today, petrol is priced at Rs 80.25 per liter and diesel at Rs 4.12 per liter. Prime Minister Narendra Modi today opened his mouth on the rise in oil prices, blaming the previous government for the problem. “If the previous government had tried to reduce its dependence on oil imports, the middle class would not have suffered today,” he said. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that in 2019-20, India imported 75% of its oil and 53% of its gas. Modi questioned whether such a diverse and talented country like India should be so dependent on oil imports. He was speaking at the inauguration of an oil and gas project in Tamil Nadu. “I don’t want to criticize anyone,” he said. But if the issue had been addressed earlier, the middle class would not have been affected. Our government is thinking of the middle class. “Ethanol is being given more importance to help farmers and consumers,” he said. In the past, there have been a number of instances where oil prices have stalled for a few days during the election. It is alleged that the ambassador provided the information to Hussein. But this time in Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Assam, Puducherry and Kerala, with the elections looming in the heat of April, no efforts are being made to bring oil prices under control. Center Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan made it clear a few days back that the government has no plans to reduce taxes on petrol and diesel. By 2030, it is expected to generate 70 percent of its energy from renewable energy sources. “Increased solar power generation, public transport, the widespread use of LED bulbs, scrap policies for vehicles, and solar-powered water pumps,” he said. 4w Delhi: Consumers have been worried about the steady rise in petrol and diesel prices in the country since the rise in crude oil prices in the international market.
