I was just wondering. How many ministers and deputy ministers and what nots are there ? Let say 300 for example.

Out of this nearly all of them drive monteros or a vehicle that consumes the most amount of fuel and is expensive.

so we have 300 monteros. Lets say a liter of petrol costs 100 bucks.
a montero has a tank of 80 liters. On that 80 liters it runs about 400Km more or less.

lets assume the petrol is refilled every 3 days

for one montero, filled once costs 100x80=8000 rupees
so for the month, filled 10 times(30/3) costs 8000x10=80,000

am I right ?

so for the 300 vehicles for the month it comes to
80,000x300 = 24,000,000 per month on fuel

now as we know most of these ministers have more than one vehicle, one for the wife, one for the son, one for the daughter and one brother, one for the brother-in-law, one for the nephew and so on

so lets assume each of them have on average 4 vehicles, the kids need to show their friends they have a cool car, and it has loads of power, and the wife has to show her friends at hilton her husband has given her the best car, and so on.

so we’ll follow the same formula, let’s assume they all got monetros or a skylines, or a jags or bms

24,000,000x4=96,000,000 a month for all minister vehicles

let’s break it down for one
96,000,000 / 300 = 320,000 per minister per month for fuel for whole family

now we need to include the convoy vehicles

let’s put an average of 3 vehicles, these we’ll put a diesel something
let’s assume 5000 for fuel per tank and it’s filled twice a week
5,000 x 10 = 50,000 per vehicle per month

then for all three vehicles 50,000 x 3 = 150,000 per convoy per minister

so the total per minster for all vehicles per month comes to

320,000 + 150,000 = 470,000 rupees

is that ok ?

now lets take all of them together

470,000 x 300 ======
RUPEES 141,000,000 per month on fuel for ministers

or lets divide by 100 for US dollars

====
1,410,000 US DOLLARS per month on fuel for ministers

1.4 Million US Dollars on fuel per month for ministers

I’m no math whiz nor am I a policy whiz I could be wrong, so please correct me if I am. Are these correct or have I gone way off ?

I would like to know the actual amount. Our tax rupees cover these or don’t they ?

If my thinking is incorrect please correct me.

Thank you
