Union minister Raosaheb Danve on Monday said the Centre has reduced taxes on fuel twice, and the Maharashtra government should also now cut fuel tax to provide relief to the general public.
Notably, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Kerala have decreased VAT on petrol and diesel after Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's call to provide further relief to consumers following a cut in excise duty by the Centre.
