‘Petrol pump operators were demanding’
Jharkhand Petroleum Dealers Association is continuously demanding reduction of VAT rates on petrol-diesel in the state. Association officials say that in the neighboring states of Jharkhand, West Bengal, Bihar and Odisha, the price of diesel is low. Due to which the people of Jharkhand are getting diesel filled from these states. Due to this, the petrol pump operators of the state are suffering. The CM did not reduce the VAT rates on diesel, but by reducing VAT on petrol, gave a big relief to the BPL card holders.
Central government has also given relief
Let us inform that due to the continuous increase in excise duty and VAT, the price of this petrol has jumped above Rs 100 per liter this year. At the same time, the price of diesel had also reached Rs 80-90 per liter in many states. In view of the increasing anger among the people, the Central Government had announced a reduction of Rs 5 and Rs 10 in the excise duty on petrol and diesel on the occasion of Diwali.
Jharkhand beats all states
After this announcement of the Center, BJP ruled states in the country had also announced to reduce the prices by reducing the rates of VAT. However, non-BJP ruled states were stuck in this matter. In the midst of all this, Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren has won by announcing a sudden cut of Rs 25 in the price of petrol for the BPL category.
