The Iranian parliament has given the government the authority to increase the price of gasoline

According to the exclusive report of Energy Press, Ahmed Alirezabigi, a member of the country’s internal affairs commission and parliament councils, in response to the question that the increase in the price of gasoline was not included in the budget of 1403, does the government have the legal authority to increase the price of gasoline in the year without the opinion of the parliament new raise? Because some of the government’s recent moves have caused the increase in the price of gasoline, he told “Energy Press” that the parliament has given the authority to the government in the budget law to personally respond to the increase in the price of energy carriers and especially gasoline.

The representative of the people of Tabriz in the 10th and 11th Majlis continued: In other words, the Majlis took this responsibility from its own shoulders, with the idea that it would put the responsibility of this work on the shoulders of the government. The government also seems to be in a situation where it has no choice but to do this and spends four billion dollars annually to compensate for the lack of gasoline.

Alireza Begi stated: The government wants to increase the price of gasoline, but it is not possible. Because the government’s way of dealing with people’s living expenses and society’s incomes has been difficult. He has not even been under the burden of increasing the salaries of the Social Security Organization to stop the increase in prices, for example.
