Roll back excise duty hike on petrol, diesel immediately: Choudhry

Chandigarh, Jan 2 (UNI) Leader of the Haryana Congress Legislature Party Kiran Choudhry today strongly condemned the decision of the Centre to hike the excise duty on petrol by 37 paise per litre and by Rs 2 a litre on diesel and demanded its immediate rollback.
Basic excise duty on unbranded or normal petrol has been increased from Rs 7.36 per litre to Rs 7.73 and the same on unbranded diesel from Rs 5.83 to Rs 7.83 per litre.
