Whatever justification the Government may have had to decontrol petrol pricing to allow market conditions to rule things, there is a little doubt about the wrong timing of the act.

And the common man, already burdened so heavily by continually rising prices for the past one and a half years, stands almost totally floored by this recent step. Hence the nationwide outcry against the ill-timed move by the Government.
