Fuel queues over. Every shed in Colombo given a bowser: Lokuge

Date:

Fuel queues in the Colombo city are declining suggested Energy Minister Gamini Lokuge. These queues occurred due to the inconsistent distribution of fuel during the last few days, he added speaking to media today (17).

The people will no longer be kept in queues in the event that the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CEYPETCO) has enough diesel and petrol stocks, Lokuge promised.

The supply of diesel and petrol to all petrol stations in Colombo has commenced and a significant number of petrol stations have been given stocks by noon, he went on, revealing that another ship carrying diesel has been paid off and the stocks will be unloaded tomorrow.

However, many long queues were seen near fuel stations in the Colombo city this afternoon as well, according to correspondents.
