Exercising your voting right will get you discount at petrol pump
New Delhi: Casting the vote could fetch you a 50-paise-perlitre discount on your fuel bill on the election day.
“We have come forward to promote voting among the voters with a ‘Promote Voting’ campaign with a 50-paise/litre discount,” the All India Petroleum Dealers Association (AIPDA) said in a statement on Friday. The offer will be available from 8 am to 8 pm at the fuel stations participating in the campaign for customers who have the voting mark on their fingers.
A consumer can avail of the discount for a maximum of 20 litres of fuel on that day, AIPDA president Ajay Bansal said, adding that he expects at least 90% of about 58,000 dealermembers of the association will participate in the campaign. Dealers will bear the financial burden of the discount, not the oil companies, Bansal said.
