Iran Press/ Iran news: The Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei called on the government to take every step possible to alleviate people’s economic concerns after the implementation of the gasoline rationing and price revision plan, reported Iran press.
“Authorities should use all their capacities to minimize people’s concerns over this [gasoline rationing] plan,” Ayatollah Khamenei added during his teachings in a class of advanced Islamic Jurisprudence (kharej–e Fiqh) on Sunday.
Ayatollah Khamenei supported the government’s decision on revising fuel prices, saying: “I am not an expert in this field, but I had asserted before that I would back whatever decision the heads of the three branches of government [legislative, judiciary, administrative] make.”
However, he underlined the necessity of taking into consideration people’s demands in this regard, saying officials should be careful that the plan would not lead to a hike in prices of other goods and commodities.
