Fuel Price Out For December 22: Check Petrol, Diesel Rates In Your City

There has been a possibility that individuals in the name of SC and ST applicants can operate petrol pumps. Now, a parliamentary panel has diminished this likelihood. There are also certain changes made in the said allocation guidelines. The panel has asked the Centre to make sure oil marketing companies conduct regular surprise inspections to keep these operators in check. They had also mentioned that the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has reduced itself to the functions of “a mere rubber stamp”, reported The Print. This is because the ministry had instead given full autonomy to public sector oil marketing companies according to the panel.
