Government makes new decision on fuel distribution

Date:

The government in a move counter illegal stockpiling of fuel amid the crises in the country has decided not to issue fuel for cans and bullies via fuel stations on April 13, 14 and 15.

This was revealed by Chairman of the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CEYPETCO) Sumith Wijesinghe at a briefing held in Colombo today (11).

The matter should be handled without causing any hindrance to those engaged in agriculture in particular, the CEYPETCO Chairman added.

Accordingly, the facility to obtain fuel for relevant vehicles can be accessed by submitting a letter certified by the Agricultural Research Officer or the Grama Niladhari Officer of the area, Wijesinghe noted.
