    40 liters last for like 10 days for me.

    anyways. if onion prices can lead to BJP government falling in Delhi, a 10 rupee hike in petrol would remove congress from the face of the earth. maximum price hike can be around 5 rupees that too would create a big nuisance for the central government.

    the sad thing is that petrol remains expensive compared to diesel. hikes in petrol are usually more than on diesel.

    yet, its the richer people who buy diesel cars. middle class continues to drive their scooters, bikes, marutis (petrol ones!)...

    a dude driving a ford fiesta diesel pays less per kilometer compared to a dude driving a maruti 800.

    of course this is because commercial vehicles are mostly based on diesel as the fuel. the government needs to find out a way to allow commercial vehicles to get diesel at lower prices compared to regular owners of diesel cars.
