There is no flaw in the demand raised by NCP MP Supriya Sule that the government should intervene and bring down high prices of petrol, diesel and domestic cooking gas so that crores of poor people are benefited. After the statements made by some ministers that prices of petrol, diesel and LPG are not in their hands have been exposed badly when the government allegedly cut the prices of fuel by slashing taxes after ruling parties’ poll debacle in some of the bye-polls across the country, there is no point in roasting the common man under such high rate of inflation due to rising fuel prices. Though quite a large proportion of the high rates of fuel was cut recently, there is more to be done in this regard as still the prices of fuel are sky-rocketing. Besides the surging price of cooking oil is also a big issue for the people living in poverty as without this entity preparing food is nearly impossible. It is necessary that the government should think of the bottom of the pyramid of society and bring down taxes on petrol, diesel and LPG cylinders so that people at large get some relief from inflation. There is no reason that the government remains adamant on the issue because there are more ways to revive the sinking economy as LPG and other fuels alone cannot do this colossal job. What is the fun of keeping economics’ experts in the country when they are doing nothing to suggest the political leadership which is steering the country? It is a sad state of affairs that without taking much pain the government is raising prices of essential commodities to bridge the gap of financial crunch which reportedly the country is facing due to the Corona crisis and various other steps taken in the past which somehow boomeranged and incurred colossal losses to the country. The need of the time is to make use of the intellect of the country to resolve the financial crisis and bring down the inflation rate and lay focus on plummeting the prices of LPG and other fuels as the same are pinching the common man.
