Petrol pumps in Jaipur wore a deserted look as the Rajasthan Petroleum Dealers Association initiated a two-day strike on Sunday, calling for lower taxes on petrol and diesel. The strike, starting at 6 am on March 10th and ending at 6 am on March 12th, saw fuel stations across the state closed, with dealers refraining from buying or selling fuel. Association President Rajendra Singh Bhati cited the government’s failure to fulfill Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s promise of reducing VAT on fuel and addressing stagnant dealer commissions for seven years as reasons for the strike. Commuters like Pappu Singh expressed frustration over the lack of fuel availability, while Suresh Kumar highlighted the challenges faced by workers due to the closure of all petrol pumps, urging for a swift resolution.
