'No hike in fuel prices'

NEW DELHI, MAY 27. Petrol and diesel prices will not be hiked from June 1 despite the spurt in global oil prices. The Government would like to wait for the outcome of a meeting of the oil cartel, OPEC, on June 3 for giving a shape to a new pricing policy that has a ``human face,'' according to the Union Petroleum Minister, Mani Shankar Aiyar.
