The government of Bangladesh has issued a new directive regarding the supply of octane and petrol to filling stations amid an ongoing global energy crisis caused by the Iran-Israel and United States conflict. According to a notice signed by Shahina Sultana, Secretary of Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC), the average reduction in fuel sales in divisional cities has been revised from 25 percent to 15 percent.
The directive aims to maintain adequate fuel supply across the country in line with public demand during the current global crisis. BPC has instructed its marketing companies, depot supervisors, sales officers, and dealers or agents to ensure fuel distribution according to the revised allocation chart.
The notice emphasizes that all concerned parties under BPC must take necessary measures to implement the updated supply plan effectively to prevent further disruption in fuel availability.
