Amid skyrocketing prices of petrol and diesel across the country, Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday claimed that his Government is trying to solve the distress caused.
While talking to media persons, he said, “Our Government is trying to solve it (fuel price hike) so that the public doesn't suffer.” Citing an increase in the prices of crude oil in the international market, Singh opined that the fuel price hike, which is a result of rising global oil prices, has not affected the economy of the country.
"Due to the rise in the price of crude oil in international markets, there has been an increase in price of petrol and diesel. However, this has not affected the economy of the country," he said.
