Back when Veerappa Moily was Petroleum Min, the world cut off crude oil supplies to India, not because of any Gulf War, but because India could not pay its outstanding dues. The UPA govt had looted the treasury so much that the country had zero cash left to import even a drop of oil. Moily was forced to close petrol pumps from 8 pm to 8 am and urged citizens to switch to public transport to save foreign exchange. When Modi became PM, he spent years cleaning up the ₹2.6 lakh crore in petroleum bonds accumulated from that Congress plunder. So the next time those Congress dogs start barking, “Why didn’t petrol and diesel prices drop when crude got cheap?” tell those morons the truth: Manmohan Singh emptied the treasury to fund Sonia Gandhi and her clan’s filthy extravagance. Modi was simply repaying every rupee of the debt the Congress party had racked up.
