Bangladesh’s Road Transport and Bridges Minister Sheikh Robiul Alam announced on Sunday that the government has ended all fuel rationing for public transport across the country. The decision, effective immediately, follows an improvement in fuel supply conditions. The minister stated that fuel distribution and sales will continue normally, as they were before the onset of the Iran war crisis. The move aims to ensure smooth travel and goods transport during the upcoming Eid-ul-Fitr holiday period.
Fuel rationing had been introduced on March 6 amid public panic over a possible shortage linked to fears surrounding the Iran conflict. At that time, the government limited daily fuel allocations for different vehicle types, ranging from 2 liters for motorcycles to 220 liters for long-distance trucks. The restrictions were later eased, including an increase in the motorcycle fuel limit to 5 liters and a reduction in overall rationing from 25 percent to 15 percent.
With the Eid travel surge approaching, the government has now fully withdrawn the rationing system to stabilize transport operations and meet public demand.
