Vehicles in eight northern
districts are not getting fuel oil at the filling stations to run the wheels as
the supply of fuel oil remained stopped after Eid-ul-Fitr, causing immense
suffering to the people.
According to the filling station owners,
petrol, octane, and diesel are supplied to the railway head depot in Parbatipur
of Dinajpur from Chattogram through Khulna to meet the demand of eight districts
of the northern region.
The authorities concerned did not
supply even one liter of petrol to the depot after Eid which created a huge
fuel crisis in the region.
An official of the local Petrobangla
office said he doesn’t know when the next shipment of fuel oil will reach the Parbatipur depot. He, however, said a freight train started the journey from Khulna
to Dinajpur on Monday.
Meanwhile, the filling stations
have been supplying octane on a limited scale which does not meet the demand.
Petobangla had supplied two lakh
liters of petrol to Dinajpur depot from Khulna before Eid. On the other hand,
it supplied the same amount of octane on May 8 which is not sufficient to meet
the demand.
Md Imran, manager of Parbatipur
head depot, said, eight northern districts have 125 filling stations. Oil
tankers from these pumps are waiting in queues at the depot for oil.
Petrobangla set up a head depot
at Parbatipur rail station to supply fuel oil to eight northern districts to
meet of demand for fuel oil._UNB
