Chandigarh, November 2
AAP senior leader Harpal Singh Cheema today said the Congress government was as much responsible for the rise in petrol and diesel prices as the Centre, which had proved insensitive in controlling inflation. He demanded reduction in taxes levied on fuel so as to bring down the rising prices.
“Petrol and diesel prices in Punjab are the highest among the neighbouring states as the state government is levying 31.17 per cent VAT on petrol and 19.56 per cent VAT on diesel,” said Cheema. — TNS
