New Delhi, March 27: The Modi Cabinet has applauded the Indian government’s decision to reduce excise duty on petrol and diesel amidst ongoing conflicts in the Middle East. Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, along with Union Ministers Nitin Gadkari and Amit Shah, expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Modi for this decision.
Defense Minister Rajnath Singh took to social media platform X, stating that in light of rising international crude oil prices due to the crisis in West Asia, the government’s reduction of excise duty on petrol and diesel is a timely and decisive step that provides essential relief to citizens.
At a time when many countries are forced to increase fuel prices, this action reflects the government’s proactive approach and unwavering commitment to public welfare. Singh emphasized that Modi’s leadership is characterized by a citizen-centric approach and dedication to the well-being of the people.
Union Minister Nitin Gadkari also commented on X, noting that amid the ongoing fuel crisis in West Asia, which has driven global energy prices up, the Indian government has taken a timely and citizen-focused step by reducing excise duty on petrol and diesel. While many countries are continuously raising fuel prices, this decision under Modi’s leadership demonstrates a firm commitment to public welfare. It not only provides relief to families and businesses but also showcases a sensitive governance system aimed at shielding citizens from global economic shocks.
Amit Shah, another Union Minister, highlighted on X that the fuel shortage caused by the West Asia crisis has led to skyrocketing prices worldwide. In this context, the Modi government’s decision to cut excise duty on fuel brings much-needed relief to citizens. While many nations have increased diesel and petrol prices, this move reflects the government’s citizen-centric governance and sensitivity in decision-making. Shah congratulated PM Modi for this decision.
BJP National President Nitin Naveen remarked on X that during a time when the world faces challenges due to the West Asia crisis, the central government, under PM Modi’s leadership, has reduced central excise duty on petrol and diesel by ₹10 per liter for domestic consumption, providing Indian citizens protection from rising prices. He expressed gratitude to PM Modi for standing firmly with the people, ensuring that no family bears the burden during these challenging times.
