Fuel For Free: Chandigarhs 'Petrol Langar' Turns Chaotic, Leaves People Fuming

A petrol langar offering free fuel coupons in Chandigarh was postponed after heavy rains disrupted the planned event, but the earlier announcement still drew a large crowd. Amritsar-based social worker Rakesh Trehan, also known as Raja D King, had planned to distribute 500 fuel coupons to two- and three-wheeler owners and 1,000 coupons to four-wheeler owners. The event was rescheduled for Friday and is expected to continue for three days until Sunday. However, several people gathered at a Sector 10 petrol pump on Tuesday and alleged that no coupons were distributed. The crowd, combined with heavy rain, triggered chaos, forcing the organisers and pump owners to shut the station. Police intervened to disperse people, while several vehicles were reportedly impounded for causing traffic disruptions.
