The Central Government has not made any comments regarding the consecutive rise in Petrol Prices for over years now, despite their rigorous criticism of the Congress Government before 2014.
Note: State-run oil refiners such as Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum revise the fuel rates daily, by taking into account the crude oil prices in international markets, and the rupee-dollar exchange rates. Any changes in petrol and diesel prices are implemented with effect from 6:00 AM every day.
