According to the reports, which were published on Thursday in all Urdu and English newspapers and also highlighted by TV channels, another petrol price hike has become imminent by the end of this month.
By virtue of the upcoming increase, petrol price will be further nearing the “coveted” figure of Rs 100 per litre while diesel price has already got this “distinction” earlier this month.
With hike in every POL product’s price, it is becoming imperative that the motorists look for some innovative technology products, and there must be some in the market surely, for affecting reduced fuel consumption in their vehicles and also creating pollution free atmosphere with reduced smoke emission while going the usual long distances.
The federal and provincial government functionaries may not be so keen in this regard for they don’t have to pay from their pockets but the motorists in the private sector should not wait for any government initiative and go for fuel saving steps for their vehicles on priority basis. They’ve already suffered a lot on this account.
