One more thing to notice here in the article of ABP news is that it claimed, India stands at 8th number of having highest price for diesel, which is again ‘Wrong & False’ in the above article. India is almost behind 20-25 countries having the highest price for diesel as per the report of Global Petrol Price.

Statistic Times keeps the data of every country in the world about (Gas/petrol/diesel) prices. India doesn’t stand at 3rd position, but many Asian, European, South American etc countries are above India with high prices of Petrol.
