Congress spokesperson Gaurav Vallabh says that while working in English style, Modi government earned Rs 26 lakh 51 thousand 919 crore from oil in seven years. He said that there are 26 crore families in our country. Modi government looted 1 lakh per family during seven years.
Vallabh said that the six thousand rupees given to a farmer is taken back in the form of one lakh. He said that the government is filling its pockets by cutting the pockets of the common people. Ordinary people are dying. But the government is not worried. They are filling their treasury.
Anchor Sandeep Chaudhary took a jibe at the Congress and asked that why are the rates of oil so high in your ruled states of Rajasthan and Maharashtra? His question was why the prices of Rajasthan and Maharashtra are higher than the prices of Delhi. Why are the governments not understanding the problems of the common man?

Gaurav Vallabh said that the government charges an excise duty of Rs 32 on diesel and Rs 28 on petrol. Which state is such that takes so much duty? Center does not give any account of PM Cares Fund. If you ask the account, the government says that we have given free vaccine. His question was that when the vaccine is being administered with our money, then why is there no picture of us on the certificate of the vaccine.
On the higher oil prices in Rajasthan and Maharashtra compared to Delhi, he said that money is spent in the transportation of oil. This is the reason that the price of oil in Andaman is only Rs 80 per liter. He said that we again demand that oil should be brought under the purview of GST. For this they will put pressure on the government. Once oil comes under the ambit of GST, the central government will not be able to increase the price arbitrarily.
