Rajasthan scraps city-specific petrol-diesel pricing, implementing uniform district pricing.

Rajasthan's government has scrapped the concept of different cities, different prices for petrol and diesel, aiming for one price in each district. This move is welcomed by the Petroleum Pump Dealers Association, who hope petrol will soon come under GST purview. Rajasthan Chief Minister, Bhajan Lal Sharma, announced a 2% reduction in VAT on petrol and diesel, as well as a 4% hike in dearness allowance for state government employees and pensioners.
