Delhi govt to form committee to look into demand for revision of fuel prices

Days after autorickshaw and taxi unions in the capital threatened to go on an indefinite strike demanding subsidy on CNG prices, Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot Friday said the government is considering setting up a committee to revise auto and taxi fares in Delhi.

“Due to rising fuel prices, auto/taxi unions have been demanding revision of fares. The Arvind Kejriwal-led government understands their concerns. A committee shall soon be constituted by the transport department, and it shall furnish its recommendations in a time-bound manner,” Gahlot tweeted.
