Petrol dealers across Maharashtra including Pune will protest by not purchasing fuel for one day on Tuesday, May 31, demanding increase in dealer margin/commission which has not been incremented since 2017.
According to Ali Daruwala, the national spokesperson of All India Petrol Dealers’ Association, even as the dealers are on strike, petrol pumps in Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad will operate as usual.
“The customers can fill fuel in their vehicles as petrol pumps in the city will remain open. Only the dealers have decided not to purchase fuel for a day from the government,” Daruwala said.
