Petrol Rs396.65: Roz Thoda Badhta, Roz Thoda Ghatta, Roz Khabar
The federal government increased petrol by Rs1.82 per litre and decreased high-speed diesel (HSD) by 91 paisas per litre for October 8, according to a Petroleum Division notification. Petrol was fixed at Rs396.65 per litre and HSD at Rs394.94 per litre for Thursday. The previous day, for October 7, petrol had risen by Rs1.19 per litre and HSD had fallen by Rs1.91 per litre.
On July 17 the government announced a daily pricing mechanism, replacing the weekly one, as renewed tensions between the United States and Iran continued to drive volatility in global oil markets. Brent futures were up $1.29, or 1.28%, to $101.87 a barrel, and WTI was up 22 cents, or 0.25%, to $89.66. Pakistan imports the majority of its petroleum requirements, so global developments quickly translate into higher domestic fuel prices.
On September 13, PM Shehbaz announced a relief scheme offering Rs100 per litre off petrol for motorcycles, three-wheeler rickshaws and cars with engines up to 800cc, covering an estimated 11.8 million beneficiaries. On September 17 the government reintroduced austerity measures: shops, markets, malls and grocery stores close by 9pm, marriage halls by 10pm, and restaurants and food outlets may operate until 11pm, with takeaway and home delivery exempt.
Dekho babu, Pakistan mein petrol ka daily bhaav aaj Rs396.65 hai, Rs1.82 upar, aur diesel Rs394.94, 91 paisa neeche. Kal petrol Rs1.19 upar tha aur diesel Rs1.91 neeche. Matlab roz subah pump par jaake pata chalta hai ki aaj kya mood hai. 17 July se weekly ki jagah daily system hai, kyunki US aur Iran ke tanaav se tel ke daam hilte hain.
Aur sunte jaaiye. 17 September ko austerity wapas aayi: dukaanein 9 baje, shaadi hall 10 baje, restaurants 11 baje tak, par takeaway aur home delivery chhoot par. Matlab dukaan band ho jayegi, par scooter chalega. Aur 13 September ko PM ne Rs100 prati litre ki raahat ki yojana bhi batayi, bike aur 800cc tak ki cars ke liye. Hum yeh nahi keh rahe ki kuch galat hai. Hum sirf kehte hain ki jahan bhaav roz badle, wahan raahat bhi roz badalni chahiye, taaki Prachand Chutiya Index kabhi bore na ho.
FINAL VERDICTAaj ka 'Dukaan Band, Delivery Chalu' Samman, aur Prachand Chutiya Daily Pass us formula ko jo petrol bachata hai ya nahi, yeh sirf scooter ko pata hai.
