A protest and brief road blockade took place on Wednesday night at the Jhinai Filling Station in Sarishabari municipality of Jamalpur district, centering on fuel distribution. Locals alleged that a syndicate’s influence caused suffering for ordinary bikers and emergency service workers. The unrest reportedly forced station employees to remain inside their office for about one and a half hours until police restored order.
According to local sources, long queues formed from morning, and fuel was distributed until 6 p.m. Allegations surfaced that former Sarishabari municipal Chhatra League joint convener Faruk Ahmed stayed near the dispenser under the pretext of assisting distribution, obstructed journalists and service workers, and later incited bikers to protest. The station manager said distribution stopped at 6 p.m. per administrative instruction, after which some people created chaos and blocked the road. The owner stated that fuel supply was adequate but distribution was being done three days a week due to exams and traffic congestion.
Police confirmed that no major untoward incident occurred and that the situation is now normal.
