Comrade Provash Ghosh, General Secretary, SUCI(C), issued the following statement on 22 May 2022:
‘‘The recent announcement of reduction in taxes on petrol-diesel by the central government is virtually negligible compared to the phenomenal escalation during last several years and hence is nothing but a face-saving measure. Alongside withdrawal of all taxes and cess on fuel, Indian government must endeavour to build up world public opinion against periodic rise in international crude oil price.
While demanding of the government to ensure availability of petrol-diesel-LPG at cost prices, we call upon all categories of people to build up united, organized, sustained and powerful movement to compel the government to yield to these legitimate demands.’’
