One drop of petrol!!!!


Petrol prices are going up and up everyday..It looks like it is showing people its value!! A time has come where people who used to waste petrol by going on long drives are now trying every bit to save a drop of it.
The increase in price of petrol is making it difficult for the middle class families as it had led to inflationary pressure on the economy.The only benefit is that people have now realized what petrol means, and are preserving it.



Now looking at the alternatives of fuel so as to fight inflation people should now move to past and use Horses and horse carts as the mode of transport. This means will be a cheap mode and an added benefit would be that it is an Eco-Friendly method and believe me driving a horse is much more fun than driving a bike or a car...Think of a situation where hundreds of horses are running on road instead of cars..Amazing Na!!!


Well this was just a mockery of government decisions who don't think about the society before taking such harsh steps. If they really cared about the companies making huge losses than they could have cut down on excise duty and other taxes which contributes to around 50% of what the fuel costs to us. The taxes can easily be increased on alcohols and cigarettes which would help government to cover up the lost revenues and it would also help in decreasing its consumption!!!




Thus, I just want to say that the government should take proper measure so that the whole society benefits and to curb down on the gap between rich and poor...

Thanks for reading.....
