Earlier my full tank used to cost ₹3300.
Now the same tank costs ₹3567.
That’s already ₹267 extra.
But the real damage is mileage.
Earlier:
16.5 kmpl average
Now:
11.5 kmpl average
If I drive 1,650 km a month:
Earlier fuel needed:
1,650 ÷ 16.5 = 100 litres
Now fuel needed:
1,650 ÷ 11.5 = 143 litres
Extra fuel consumption:
43 litres more every month.
At around ₹101.90/litre,
monthly extra expense = ₹4,382 more.
So effectively:
₹3300 tank became ₹3567
+
₹4382 extra monthly fuel burn because mileage crashed.
Middle class is paying more money to travel the same distance.

today on train 12476 from Katra. Noticed passengers smoking inside the train/toilet . It is serious safety risk.
Requesting the Railway to enforce stricter rules and impose heavy fines to protect passengers’ lives. #PassengerSafety@RailMinIndia@AshwiniVaishnaw
