Petrol price.. going up and up….
In last 6-7 months price of petrol has been increased four times!!
A clear indication.. we are on verge of “NO MORE PETROL”. A shopkeeper at general store or vegetable seller or cab’s driver … every body have only one reason for increase in their rates. Whenever we grumble for rates escalation.. What we can do madam, look at the price of petrol! ! … Does anybody has any argument to back fire?? I don’t know, how price of petrol is related to price rates of cab which works on gas, I don’t know how it is related with groceries kept in the general store.. except marginal increase because of increase in transportation prices, but yeah! I know price of petrol has rocketed for the sure, so I can’t argue on that base. Lol!!.
In year 1986-87, I was asked, what I would say to Mr. Sadam Hussain, if he would visit my place. My reply was “What would you like to have?? Tea or Petrol?? “ Now in the year 2011, I can’t dare to ask the same question, I can’t afford to.
Factors leading us to NO MORE PETROL are of course petrol scarcity plus more and more vehicles on the road plus increase in other uses of petrol. The future is scary. The big questions arise “How much is left? How long we can survive with it? “,“Can we survive without petrol? If yes, how long?”, “Is there any alternative available?”
