Petrol prices to increase by Rs7

The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) has prepared a summary for an increase in petroleum product prices up to rupees 7 per litre. A formal announcement regarding the expected hike in prices will be made tonight.


Petrol shortage hits different parts of the country due to the expected increase in the prices of petroleum products. The shortage was witnessed in Multan, DG Khan, Vehari, Bahawalpur, Quetta, Sargodha, Faisalabad, Lahore and other adjacent areas .


The owners of filling stations stopped the sale of petrol due to the expected increase in the price. In response, frustrated citizens have demanded strict action against those petrol pump owners who have stopped the sale of petrol.

alok | 13 years ago | Reply govt is charging Rs 4 on Rs 10 paid for petrol it can be saved by using less petroproducts and more solar energy which is available tax free..I will request pak brothers and sisters to use free solar passive infinite heat and light energy instead of other costly energy sources. By a solar cooker you can get energy at 19 times cheaper cost than LPG and kerosene. So kindly use free infinite green solar thermal and light energy directly by solar cooker , water heater, food dehydrators, water purifiers, distillers, solar windows , swimming pool heater , steam makers etc etc. Come on Pak use this free energy which you get 2 times more than India on per capita basis. Every Pak brother and sister gets 10 million kwh free green solar thermal energy each year as against his or her average total energy consumption of 1000 kwh per year only. Show the way to we Indians and other SAARCian also. I could use my solitary solar cooker to make 6 dishes in last 2 days for lunch as my without wasting any time for cooking or money for energy.
Mohib ud Din | 13 years ago | Reply Great achievement by OGRA to suck last drop of blood from the body of poor Pakistanis struggling for survivals. Do you know the consequential impact of this increase on. food items ,dairy products, vegetable, transportationand, electricityand and many others. State Bank of Pakistan in its forthcoming monetary policy would again increase discount rate on the pretext of unending inflation. At the end of the day number of people would increase below poverty line due to inept economic managers of the country vis-a-vis dictation by foreigh bosses.
