Government last night increased the price of petrol by Rs 6.51 and diesel by Rs 19.39. Now the cost of both is about Rs 400 per litre. In setting the new price, the govt decreased tax (levy) on petrol by Rs 3.88. But it also increased the tax (levy) on diesel by Rs 28.69 per litre. So now Pakistanis are paying about Rs 120 in custom duties and taxes on every litre of petrol and Rs 60 on every litre of diesel. The Pakistani people will therefore pay, and our govt will earn, Rs 180 bn of duties, taxes and levies on selling petrol and diesel this month. This sacrifice by the people allows one govt to buy a luxury new jet for billions, another to increase the cost of an unfinished (for 15 years!) water pipeline project from Rs 40 billion to Rs 400 billion and yet another govt to give 25 crore (Rs 43 bn in total) to each govt MNA to spend in his constituency. The govt will ask you for more sacrifices next month!
