Country men wait for the next music of the ruling politicians .This time, this is a coup engineered by the Indian government and the opposition through the Indian oil Co.So government media will be with full of news in this direction in coming days. Ruling politicians may be thinking that the people of this country believe them what ever they say. They will find that they are wrong very soon.

I appriciate the desicion taken by LIOC to adhere to the SC ruling. This stupid Govt. don't know what they are doing. LIOC please ensure that there are enough stocks since the people of the country are suffering.

100 % tax is a big deal. This means for evry 50 rupees the government is making another 50/- How bigger a price does the government want the people to pay. Those opposing this ruling must also understand that owning a car, building a house, living a decent life is every persons dream and a right. Most of these people are in the private sector who are the driving force behind the economy. The government continues to bash this segment whilst doling out benefits and perks to government service personnel who spend most of the day thinking how to make a deal or reading the newspapers. If cuts are to be made the government, ministers, public service personnel should also make cuts. Let sanity prevail. It is the governments responsibility to ensure all our rights, manage the war and economy and steer this country foward just as its our right and duty to support all endevaors to end terrorism. But now the government cant find excuses. Its their job.

Even in Fuel India has to intervene. Politicians & people dont want India to intervene. But when petrol is given @ lesser rate, they'll happily pump.

When will CPC reduce the price, if at all? Will there be anyone going to CPC filling stations with IOC selling at Rs.100/- per litre?

At least they are falling in line with the Supreme Court ruling. It is high time the CPC also fell in line. The chaotic situation witnessed outside filling stations is disgraceful. The Consumer is always the loser.

Images from a LIOC petrol shed as they started selling fuel at Rs. 100 per litre resulting in long cues though some sheds have already sold out of petrol. In Ceypetco other sheds selling at the old prices are relatively quiet.

Their solution is to say petrol is consumed by rich people.However, the good thing is these Indians respect the law of the country and reduced the petrol price.
Still our so called patriot jokers cant do it. They know, if they reduce the price they have nothing to steal.

LIOC knows the real cost of petrol and the minimum profit they would be making by selling 1 litre of petrol at Rs100/= and were quick to follow the Supreme court order, whereas the CPC which functions by sucking people's blood is wandering how they could reduce, if they reduce they cannot cover up the money not recovered from GOSL clients and Mihin Air. We are at a loss to see the slow action of CPC not conforming to Supreme Court order
