New Delhi: Within 24 hours of hike in petrol price by Rs. 5, Diesel Cars Owners Association (DCOA) has declared bandh in some parts of cities. They are protesting towards government for the partial behavior shown to them.
"Humare saath sautela vyavhaar hua hai ( We are treated like stepsons)" said Ashok Gupta, proud owner of Indica diesel, "When prices of petrol are hiked today itself, why we are bound to wait? Prices have increased 9 times in recent past and almost every time, whenever prices of petrol and diesel were hiked hiked together, both parties used to protest together in various part of cities, it used to be like a carnival!!"he said, there were tears in his eyes.
This news came as a shock for Baba Sehgal as he assumed that with rise in prise of petrol, diesel price would be also increasing. he took his diesel car to a nearby petrol pump and waited for some news channels to visit that petrol pump to take public reactions for rise in price.He thought he will go for diesel and he will get interviewed and will remind people of his presence but he lost his chance for much needed 1 minute publicity as prices were not increased today. "Damn it! I even prepared a rap on the increased price of diesel, now I guess I will have to wait for one more week!", said disappointed Baba Sehgal.
Mukesh Bhatt, who is an expert on every possible thing seemed to understand the pain of DCOA "See, government always tries to play smart! They are dividing petrol and diesel users so that they cannot come together and launch a joint protest. They are using divide and rule policy."
"This is entirely baseless" said a top level manager of an oil marketing company "You only tell us, in those 9 previous times, they always launched a joint campaign, has anything changed in those 9 times? The delay is for different reasons." On continuously asking for reason he finally agreed and said that the paper work for increasing petrol prices have been completed but for diesel we have to wait because officials are busy watching IPL.
Meanwhile news channels dared and asked for Rahul Mahajan's opinion he said, "I am confused what this fuss is all about? Earlier also I used to buy petrol worth Rs. 500 and even now I am buying worth Rs. 500.".Reporters stared at him then he burst into laughing and said it was a joke that Jaipal Reddy just SMSed him.
