Government announces a hike of Rs. 7.50 in petrol and suddenly everyone go in Sonakshi Sinha style .. Gaadi chalane se darr nahi lagta saheb, petrol bharvaane se lagta hain. With citizens already feeling the wrath of taxes from the government & heat from the nature, this just is perfect as a part of the conspiracy against us !!!
But like every other thing in India petrol also felt the need to compete. Petrol price did not want the Rupee price to catch up with it, it looks for now.
So what does the Indian common man do to come out of this petrol saade saati.
Firstly, empty your petrol tanks from the respective type of vehicles and sell it for this price. Ready profit mate.
Secondly, employ cheap labour maybe one or two people to push your car around .. That is much cheaper than putting petrol in your car. Plus you would be that proud citizen who created employment in this bad scenario.
And for the most important part, forget about owning a new car in these circumstances. I for one has donated my toy car collection to my neighbour's kid. Not taking chances !!!
Rioters will have to make way for kerosene as the thing has to be burnt down anyways ... who gives a shit if it is with petrol.
Movies will have to pay too ... now the 'abla naari' type mother will no longer pour petrol all over her white saree that will make way for animation & green screen effects. As hiring a technology expert along with his to and fro flight fare & accommodation will be much cheaper.
In the coming days, we will get to hear headlines like Mr. Manmohan Singh has started his tour to meet car owners to pacify them after recent turn of events. Small petrol parcels will be dropped from the sky through aeroplanes on 10th of every month. Its just 100 ml dont get so excited. Police will conduct raids on petrol pumps just because the rate of petrol is 'high'.
So then what seem to be alternatives to this problem. Well for starters diesel seems to be the poor man's fuel nowadays. No hike for a long time. Dont laugh bitches, your time will come too.
The better option will be to use the public transport but it will be more stuffed than a fat kid's mouth in an all you can eat buffet. Then there come the bicycles & the tricycles but those are just the social publicity pangs reserved for the high society counterparts. And who will pedal all the way from Suburbs to Sobo for work. Poor guy will reach the next day !!!
So next time when the petrol pump attendant asks me how much money worth of petrol to be put in, I am going to opt for the easier option. Just sprinkle petrol worth 5 bucks on the car itself I am bloody going to burn the car !!!
That just leaves us to one solution called as Work from Home. That is the most efficient way saving both money & fuel but saves fat as well that too at all the wrong places.
All in all the Petrol hike is absurd and yeah ... Anna over to you !! Chalo Ram Leela Maidan !!
Thanks Divya !!!
