Petroleum traders under the banner of Kerala State Petroleum Traders’ Association has called for a 24-pump shutdown on October 13.
The traders are protesting against “unjustified” hike in fuel prices and “wrong” policies of the government.
A statement issued by the association on Saturday said that all petroleum traders under the aegis of United Petroleum Front will go in for an indefinite cancellation of purchases and sales from October 27 if no steps are taken to address their grievances.
The fuel dealers alleged that the daily price mechanism had not benefited the consumer and the dealers and that the policy needed to be reconsidered for the benefit of all.
They said the proposal for home delivery was “riddled with safety issues,” which could lead to serious accidents.
