Wednesday after he appealed to states to reduce VAT on fuel prices that have
skyrocketed in recent weeks. Pawan Khera claimed the center 'earned Rs 26 lakh
crore' from relentless hikes in petrol and diesel prices last year and this
year. Since the hikes were suspended in the run-up to the elections, Khera
demanded further reductions in central excise rates.

earned Rs 26 lakh crore out of central excise on petrol and diesel. Has he
shared it? You didn't give GST share to states on time and then you ask states
to further reduce VAT. He should reduce central excise and then ask others to reduce
VAT," said Pawan Khera.

that the center was evading its duties on the fuel price hike. "Haryana
(where the BJP is in power) has the highest VAT on petrol and diesel. Fuel
prices rise if prices in international markets increase, but farmers don't get
increased MSP on wheat...", he alleged.

GST share to states remains unpaid... states' compensation component removed...
and now we're pointing fingers," she tweeted.
