With the arrival of a ship carrying diesel yesterday, the distribution of diesel will be carried out islandwide, revealed Shantha Silva, Co-Secretary of the Ceylon Petroleum Private Tank Owners Association, speaking to media today (17).
Accordingly, diesel will be supplied to every fuel station in the country, he went on, adding that the distribution of petrol, nevertheless, has been dropped down to about 10 per cent due to the shortage since yesterday.
