The dealers across Chandigarh had taken the decision to observe a strike tomorrow i.e on Wednesday as their profits margins are getting affected heavily due to the new petrol pricing system. The dealers made it clear that they do not intend to bring inconvenience into the lives of vehicle users but want to convey the central government that they should look for a solution to their losses after introducing dynamic fuel pricing system. The petrol pump dealers have shown concern that their overall profit margin has dipped so much that it will be a challenge for them to sustain manpower and other expenses at their petrol pumps.
