Mahendranagar. Due to the recent increase in the price of petroleum products and problems in supply, the work of large development projects in the Far West has been affected. It is said that although the builders are working with the fuel they have available, they are facing problems in advancing the project due to the increase in the price of fuel and the shortage.
