Prospecting For Swadeshi Oil

Ramar and Co are threatening to retail jerosene in a week. When the CBI had raided 11 outlets two years ago and seized ‘Ramar petrol’, it was revealed that the fuel was a mixture of toluene and benzene. Jerosene will be sold at Rs 13 per litre. But nobody is as fired up about it this time. What next? ‘Sri Ram Jetrol’, according to Sampath Kumar. But the swadeshi brigade’s new toy may remain just that—a toy.
