The government has decided to appoint 'tag officers' at petrol pumps across the country to ensure the normal supply of fuel and prevent illegal hoarding or artificial shortages. These officers will perform 13 specific duties, including recording daily stock levels, verifying fuel quantities received from depots, monitoring sales registers, and checking the accuracy of dispensing machines. They will also inspect storage capacities, detect unauthorized tanks or installations, and ensure transparency in the supply chain from depots to consumers.
According to the directive, tag officers must oversee daily operations such as measuring fuel deliveries, reconciling depot receipts, and confirming that retail sales begin within one hour of receiving fuel. They are also required to report on compliance issues, including whether pumps are open, registers are accurate, and cash memos are issued. Each pump must update its stock at least three times a day, and violations may lead to warnings, mobile court actions, or temporary suspensions.
The initiative aims to strengthen monitoring of fuel distribution and maintain stability in the energy supply chain nationwide.
