“This is a big drop in petrol prices and definitely a major relief for people in the field of sales and transport. This will help me save around Dh150-Dh200 in savings a month, which is a decent amount for the middle class,” said Dubai resident Anil Kumar, who drives regularly to Northern Emirates for the business.

“I am thrilled by the reduction in petrol prices. After the rise in fuel prices for the consecutive last four months, this news brings not only relief for me but also tangible savings to my daily commute. It’s definitely a big relief for residents like me,” said Al Hassan.
