Most petrol pumps will remain closed on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The association office-bearer said that the April 10 strike should act as a wake-up call for the state government. If the demands were not met, they will go on an indefinite strike starting April 25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government is likely to bear a revenue loss of Rs 34 crore due to the strike on Saturday.
