At the beginning of last month, citing fluctuations in international prices of crude oil, the Finance Division announced an increase in the price of gasoline at RS8.36 per liter, as of July 1.

Gasoline drives small vehicles, Rickshaws and bicycles, which makes price increases especially hard in middle and low income homes that depend on it for daily trips.
In contrast, a substantial portion of the transport sector depends on high speed diesel. Its price is considered inflationary due to its general use in trucks, buses, trains and agricultural machinery, such as tractors and metro wells.
The highest cost of high -speed diesel contributes directly to the increase in vegetable prices and other essential foods.
