February 07, 2014 22:37

The Delhi government today ruled out any cut in autorickshaw and bus fares in the coming days despite a steep reduction of Rs 14.90 per kg in CNG prices in the national capital, even as Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal announced annual revision of auto fares based on inflation.

"There is no such plan to cut auto and bus fares in the near future," said a government official today.

CNG price in the national capital was today cut by Rs 14.90 per kg and cooking gas piped into kitchens by Rs 5 per unit with effect from midnight tonight.
