Fuel dispensing limits on vehicles other than public transport and essential services have been increased. It has been decided to increase these limits in view of the increase in fuel prices from this morning.
Accordingly, the amount of fuel issued for motorcycles has been increased from Rs. 2000 to Rs. 2500. The limit for three-wheelers has been increased from 2000 rupees to 3000 rupees.
Other vehicles have been able to obtain fuel up to a limit of Rs. 8000 up to now and that limit has been increased to Rs. 10,000.
This was stated by the Minister of Power and Energy Kanchana Wijesekera addressing a media briefing held today.
