Govt to Compensate Highway Builders for Soaring Diesel Costs

The Indian government will compensate highway builders for a nearly 71% surge in bulk diesel prices over three months, aiming to shield them from increased expenditure due to the West Asia conflict. A new policy will soon be released, allowing agencies to pay the difference between base and prevailing diesel rates. This follows a significant increase in bitumen prices and a slowdown in highway construction, with a parliamentary panel recommending measures like bitumen reserves and alternative sourcing.

Govt empowers itself to restrict bulk fuel purchases from retail pumps

This measure aims to prevent shortages, hoarding, and diversion of supplies meant for ordinary consumers. The new order allows for restrictions on fuel procurement through retail outlets when deemed necessary in the public interest, potentially limiting sales to 200 liters per customer per day and prohibiting resale.
