The recent increase in fuel prices has sparked a major political controversy, with opposition parties strongly condemning the union government. Following the announcement on May 15 that petrol and diesel prices would rise by an average of three rupees and compressed natural gas by two rupees per kilogram, opposition leaders accused the Centre of deliberately delaying the hike until after the election season to protect its vote base. The opposition claims the price increase places a significant burden on the common man and questions the government’s commitment to protecting citizens. In defense, the central government attributes the fuel price hike to ongoing geopolitical tensions and a war in West Asia, specifically citing supply chain disruptions caused by the blockage of the Strait of Hormuz.
