The govt is doing a good job by increasing the petrol prices. It should remove all the subsidies on diesel, petrol and cooking gas also as this is the only way we can reduce the fiscal deficit. The government should also if possible increase more custome duty on the petroleum products so they they can increase their revenue and hike the govt employees salaries who slog day in and day out for meagre salaries.

We should revolt like in Libya Egypt and other countries We have to tell the govt enough is enough 1) They are not reducing prices and making the richer rich and poor more poor , They are taking Bribes and doing scams They are reducing Import Customs duty and playing in the hands of rich nations The govt can reduce Excise ST and reduce their expenditure . They are playing with lives of people there is nothing on the name of security , We have capability but not act like America , If war is the Answer let there be war but let the world know we will not spare the terrorist which includes the goverment
Statistics show that nearly 50% of new cars sold are diesel including luxury cars like Mercedes, BMW, Skoda, etc.
These rich crore-patis are buying diesel cars to avail the subsidy on diesel which is meant for the goods and mass passenger transportation sector. Cheap rascals.
The solution is to impose minimum 1 lakh rupees sales tax on diesel cars, minivans and SUVs. For merc, bmw, skoda cars the tax should be 3-5 lakhs.
This will prevent the subsidy from going to rich people.
Simultaneously, govt should start raising diesel prices by 1 rupee every 3 months and once it is close to petrol prices, the govt should go for market linked rates.
Then petrol and diesel will cost nearly the same and there won't be any reason to buy diesel cars.
Let the rich pay market rates for fuel.
Similarly even kerosene prices should be raised by 1 rupee and gas cylinder price by 25 rupees every 6 months.
Reduce the tax by the amount of additional revenue obtained so that the price rise is limited.
We need to start conserving fuel and work towards developing alternate energy sources.
Price of crude oil is not going to come down due to massive consumption from China and India. There is not enough crude oil in the planet that can be cheaply extracted anymore.

Actually diesel should cost more than petrol. This the case in all countries. I dont know why but our stupid governments in past have provided heavy subsidies on diesel for many many years and started correcting it in late 90s. They are trying to bring both at same level and then increase diesel price more than petrol like other countries. Diesel cost more because after refining the crude only 17% extract out as diesel and 29% as petrol from one barrel. Diesel is more efficient fuel due to its higher viscosity should be used in bigger vehicles only in bigger and efficient diesel engines (Railways, Ships, Trucks and trailors) only to get maximum out of it. Bigben's solution is perfect to avoid diesel usage in cars and SUVs.

Just think beyond,,, getting the cruid oil finished from the planet. One day this planet is going to finished itself, My dear. Also scientists are their to discover the alternate solution.
Stop producing the kid. Then these rich people won't get any poor people to work for them hence no money to rich people as a result politician will also not get any money hence everybody (richer man & politician) will have to work themselves then they will realise the importance of poor people.
