This new mechanism has been suggested by the US, whereas India was not included in the list of these countries in the plan suggested by Russia.

Sources have told The Indian Express that Russia, China, America, Pakistan and Iran were asked to be placed on the negotiating table in the briefing suggested by Russia in the increasing close proximity between Russia and China.

An official told the newspaper that this was done at the behest of Pakistan, which does not want India to be part of the roadmap being prepared for peace in this area. But India had been working on this for a long time and for this, all India contacted all the important characters in Afghanistan and beyond so that it could become a part of this table of negotiation.

After this, in January this year, Indian NSA Ajit Doval’s secret Afghanistan visit was also part of this effort. Where he met the leaders of Kabul.

Sources say that New Delhi’s relationship with Iran and the development strategy to connect Chabahar port to Afghanistan was also an important reason behind it.

In the weeks leading up to his letter, Blinken has called for a meeting between senior Afghan leaders and the Taliban in Turkey to discuss a plan to reduce ’90 days of violence’.

Government-controlled oil companies (OMCs) will no longer raise oil prices. Due to this, people who are jailed due to increased prices of petrol and diesel will definitely get some relief. According to the Business Standard news, this step is being seen in connection with the Vidhan Sabha elections.

For more than a week, the government has been constantly on target of the opposition regarding the increased prices of petrol and diesel. The price of petrol and diesel has increased, as well as the increase in the price of cooking gas by 125 rupees has put the common people in a lot of trouble.

One of the main reasons for the increased prices of petrol and diesel to reach record levels is the tax on it. Business Standard has quoted government officials as saying that the government has informally told the right three companies not to increase the price for the time being.

Quoting a government official, the newspaper writes that some states have cut tax on the purchase of oil at their place but ordinary people will not get much benefit from it. For example, West Bengal has reduced the tax on petrol and diesel by one rupee per liter. Rajasthan has reduced the tax from 38% to 36% and in Assam, it has withdrawn the additional amount which was being collected as tax due to Corona virus. In Meghalaya, there has been only a slight bowl on the right side.

But the order of not increasing the oil prices can definitely increase the concern of the oil companies.
