  "summary": "The government has recently reduced the prices of petrol and high-speed diesel by Rs8 and Rs7 per litre, respectively, as reported by Dawn. This price revision comes amid rising fuel costs due to geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. With the new prices, petrol will retail at Rs338 per litre and HSD at Rs371, following a 30-day arrangement where oil refineries will contribute to the petroleum levy, thereby reducing the consumer impact. The government continues to levy taxes on these fuels, with Rs114 per litre on petrol and Rs100 per litre on diesel.",
