Why the panic ?Is it due to fuel shortage or price hike?

It is better to announce the increase in price ahead of time, like this so that those in need could line up and get fuel. But in the past, impending fuel price increases were only known by the fuel dealers so they had ample time to hide the stocks and get huge profits next morning.
