Nitin Gadkari’s Taxed-to-Death India: From Salary to petrol, Citizens Are Milked and Mocked
Indians today are not just taxpayers — they are walking ATMs for the government. From income to vehicles, from fuel to tolls, every step of life is a never-ending tax trap. And now, with the forced push of E20 ethanol-blended petrol, even the mileage of your car is stolen from you. Yet, if you dare to complain, you’re shamelessly labelled as “PAID.”
Here’s how the great indian tax circus works under Nitin Gadkari’s watch:
1. One-Third of Your Salary Gone in Taxes
Before you can even touch your hard-earned money, the government takes away a massive slice as income tax. That’s one-third of your sweat and effort siphoned off instantly.
2. Pay GST, Registration, Road Tax, Toll on Your Car
Buying a car? Pay registration fees, GST, road tax, and the never-ending toll taxes every time you drive. You’ve paid for the road a hundred times over — yet you’re forced to keep paying to use it.
3. Petrol Taxes: The Never-Ending Loot
Fuel is one of the most heavily taxed commodities in India. Nearly 50% of what you pay at the pump is tax. It’s not just petrol in your tank; it’s your money burning away in taxes.
4. Ethanol Blended Petrol: Mileage Stolen
After paying all these taxes, you don’t even get pure petrol anymore. You get E20 ethanol-blended petrol, which reduces mileage and damages engines in the long run. So you pay more, and you get less.
5. Complain? You’re “PAID”
And here’s the insult added to injury: if you raise your voice about poor mileage or bad fuel, you’re accused of being a “paid agent.” Instead of listening to real consumer concerns, dissent is silenced with abuse.
Final Word: Gadkari’s Great Betrayal
nitin gadkari boasts about green fuel and big infrastructure, but for the ordinary indian, it means higher costs, lower mileage, and endless taxes. The truth is brutal — under this government, being a citizen feels like being punished for earning, driving, and even breathing.
This is not reform. This is robbery with a smiling face.
