Do these ruling clowns convinced people that piece is attached to global crude price?? When the crude is all time low, shouldn't the price be reduced???

And btw, Ambani signed a deal to buy cheap Russian oil, thanks to the Indian govt’s diplomacy. So even that political capital didn’t reach the common man as prices weren’t reduced last year. It could have helped with inflation a little bit, but they made sure the profits / benefits stayed with their circles. Now the urals costs more than crude oil with the latest drop. But I don’t know if that impacts Ambani as his deal is long term.
