High fuel prices have burnt a hole in the common man's pockets. With mounting frustration, rates have been cut for the third consecutive day today. However, this is likely to be cold comfort for most given that the reduction in prices has been minuscule. Prices for petrol and diesel fell by 6 paise and 5 paise per litre, respectively, on Friday. After a one paisa cut in fuel prices, petrol prices across the four metros were cut on Thursday by seven paise a litre and diesel prices fell by five paise.
