"Today, the price of crude oil has gone up to $ 23 per barrel," he told reporters via video link. If the price fall and excise duty are accounted for in six years, then the government has made a total profit of 20 lakh crore rupees.

What kind of rent is this? The British also did not take the rent during the famine. "He said," This is not the time to earn profits on petrol and diesel, but to share and take care of the profits with the public." Singhvi said that the government should share a part of this profit with the public.
