28,000 litres of fuel recovers from 2 pumps

The district administration recovered 28,000 litres of fuel from two Sadar upazila filling stations that had reportedly halted sales, following complaints of artificial shortages.

According to administrative sources, the operation took place on Saturday afternoon after complaints that Hossain Filling Station, located at Kanaipur Bazar along the Faridpur-Khulna highway, had stopped supplying fuel while displaying a sign reading “No Oil.”

During the raid, officials discovered significant quantities of stored fuel at the station, including 7,000 liters of petrol, 6,500 liters of octane, and 14,500 liters of diesel. A mobile court subsequently fined the station Taka 50,000 for misleading consumers and withholding supply.
