PMK wants immediate closure of 717 liquor shops as per TN CM''s order
Chennai, May 23: PMK leader Anbumani Ramadoss on Saturday urged authorities to immediately implement the Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay's order to close 717 liquor shops across the State. After assuming office on May 10, the chief minister issued an order to close a total of 717 liquor outlets belonging to the state-owned TASMAC, within two weeks. Only 150 from the list of 717 liquor shops have been shut, and that officials concerned have halted the work on closing the remainder, is disappointing, he alleged in a statement here. He said the order came directly from the chief minister, and there is no justification for stopping or delaying closures. The democratically elected head of the government orders the closures, officials must carry out the order rather than delay it for unclear reasons. The PMK leader alleged that the liquor lobby is using its full influence to oppose the governments decision to close the 717 outlets. Under pressure from that lobby, a petition was filed in the Madras High Court seeking to block the closures, he said, adding he court, however, dismissed the petition and commended the governments decision. Stating that the chief minister is acting with good intent to close liquor shops and eliminate illegal outlets, he said, officials must support his aim, not obstruct it.

New Delhi , May 23 : Petrol and diesel prices were increased again across major metropolitan cities on Saturday, marking the third fuel price hike in less than 10 days amid continuing volatility in global energy markets.

In Chennai, petrol prices increased by 82 paise to Rs 105.31 per litre, while diesel prices climbed by 87 paise to Rs 96.98 per litre. The latest revision comes just days after fuel prices were increased earlier this week. On Tuesday, petrol prices in Delhi rose by 87 paise from Rs 97.77 to Rs 98.64 per litre, while diesel prices increased by 91 paise from Rs 90.67 to Rs 91.58 per litre.

The repeated hikes come amid a call for fuel conservation as the world faces an energy crisis amid the West Asia conflict, which led to a blockade in the significant maritime trade route, the Strait of Hormuz. The Brent oil prices have been at a record high in the wake of the US-Israel and Iran war, which began on February 28 this year. The Brent oil price has been hovering over USD 100 per barrel as the US and Iran are attempting to mediate for a long-term ceasefire in the region. The widening of the ambit of the war engulfed the West Asian countries, which are major suppliers of fuel. However, India has maintained that there is no shortage of fuel and has adequate energy supplies. (ANI)
Fuel prices in India have seen another hike, with petrol and diesel rates increasing by Rs 0.87 and Rs 0.91 per litre respectively. This marks the third fuel price increase in May, adding to consumer costs. State-run oil companies are facing losses due to selling fuel below market rates, while global crude oil prices surge amid Middle East tensions.
