Fuel price hiked again: Petrol, diesel rates raised by over Rs 2; fourth increase in two weeks

Fuel prices have seen another significant jump, with petrol and diesel costs rising by Rs 2.61 and Rs 2.71 per litre respectively. This marks the fourth increase in under two weeks, pushing cumulative hikes close to Rs 7.5 per litre. Consumers face mounting pressure as import costs climb due to global crude oil prices and a weaker rupee.
