A pilot scheme has been launched on the islands of Kish and Qeshm in the Persian Gulf for selling gasoline, whereby it will be allocated to people whether they have a car or not, a member of Majlis Energy Commission said.
“As per the new plan, each resident of the two islands with a national code will receive 30 liters of gasoline per month at a rate of 8 cents per liter, regardless of the fact that they own a car or not,” Fereydoun Abbasi-Davani was also quoted as saying by ILNA.
The lawmaker noted that the government has no intention to raise gasoline prices and if the pilot project yields positive results, it will be carried out nationwide.
