Strike Called OFF for now - its being deffered
Petrol Pump Owners | Defer Sep 20 Strike | Minister Murli Deora | Committee - Oneindia News
The Hindu : News / National : Petrol pump owners defer strike plan

This is the best lame decision the Govt can do now!!!

Now does this mean that the prices of petrol in any part of india would be the same??

Do not take those lines seriously; I haven't seen an uniform pricing even with the world's largest fuel consumer.

Or he might've spoken something completely different context. As a country where the planning happens after execution, we'll understand this statement only after it has been implemented

Does this mean the strike is called off?

[QUOTE=aargee;495085]Ofcourse you need to buddy; just imagine the entire Chennai city being served only by Shell/Reliance & Essar fuel pumps. Shell's in cities, may be about 5-6 outlets, Reliance - 1 & Essat I know of only 2 outlets. So all put together is going to serve, say, about 10% of motorcycles, which is 1.2 Lakhs!!! I leave the rest of the calculations to you!!!

the last time there was a shortage of fuel in our city and every BP HP IO was crowded i went to shell and it was empty as usual lol people would rather fill a tank saving 50rs than spend 5rs extra per shell. there are two shell bunks near my place.. 1 is in highway.. the highway is almost always empty.. the one in ambattur is sometimes crowded. i dont go there cause they keep saying get down from bike. i understand switching off engine and not using mobile phone but getting down and pushing bike is annoying !
