Petrol Pump Fraud: Lok Sabha Elections Just before this, relief was given to the common people by the Central Government, in which the prices of petrol and diesel were reduced by two rupees each. The biggest impact of this minor cut was on those people who are poor and go to work daily on their bike or scooter, many of them also do field work. In such a situation, this reduction of two rupees will be a great relief for them. In such a situation, if we tell you that at the petrol pump you get not two rupees cheaper but seven rupees more expensive petrol, will you believe it? Many people are becoming victims of this fraud every day.
Fraud in filling petrol
Actually, two types of oil are available at petrol pumps, one of which is normal petrol and the other is power petrol. If you buy normal petrol in Noida then it costs around Rs 94 per litre, whereas powered petrol is available at Rs 101 per litre. In this, many people are being cheated every day and the most important thing is that they are not even aware of this fraud.
The color of the nozzle also changed
The difference between power and normal petrol can be seen from its nozzle, that is, the nozzle of normal petrol is green in color and the nozzle of power petrol is red in colour. However, at many petrol pumps this nozzle has been made of the same colour. That means even powered petrol is poured through a green colored nozzle. In such a situation, when people come to fill petrol, the power nozzle is put directly into the tank without asking them, people do not even know that petrol worth Rs 101 per liter is being poured into their tank.
Robbing the pockets of the poor
The biggest victims of this fraud are the poor people, who do not know how to read or those who do not pay attention. Only zero is shown at petrol pumps and people are cheated by adding power petrol. Those poor people who get one or two liters of petrol filled with the thought that they will be able to drive for many kilometers with it, do not have the slightest idea that they have got not a cheap petrol of two rupees but an expensive petrol of seven rupees.
To avoid this fraud, always pay attention to whether the petrol being poured is normal or power… You must ask questions about this to the person pouring petrol. If you do not do this, you can also be cheated and return home after filling expensive petrol instead of cheap one.
