Petrol pumps to operate from 9 am to 5 pm in protest New Delhi: Expect long queues at the petrol and diesel pumps across the country starting Monday as the station owners launch their partial shutdown of pumps, operating only from 9 am to 5 pm, in protest against inadequate commission payments.

More details are awaited.
