What Petrol Crisis?

Its all over the news today, although it might’ve been overshadowed by the Satyam fiasco, which has almost managed to dislodge all relevant 26/11 coverage from major news channels.

In case you weren’t aware, there’s a major petrol product supplies crisis due to the combined effects of strikes by the truckers (which has entered its fourth day) and the oil PSU officers (which is now in its second day).

News reports have stated that petrol stations in Delhi and Chennai are allowing customers to fuel only INR 200 worth of fuel to stave off a potential shortage, with vehicle owners across other cities running helter-skelter to fill up their tanks in case these stations run dry.

The government is in the process of invoking the ESMA to prevent the shit from further hitting the fan.

Personally, I don’t give a damn so far as petrol for transportation is concerned, and its high time we stopped our dependance on it and resorted to alternate and viable means of transport instead.

People, smarten up and start cycling!

Be awesome. (like me!)

    I agree with you. We need to use vehicles more judiciously.
