Oil Marketing Companies Assure Fuel Availability Amid Price Hikes

Public sector oil marketing companies in Jharkhand assure the public of adequate fuel supplies despite recent price hikes due to global oil price changes. They urge consumers to avoid panic buying and adhere to official communications for accurate information regarding fuel availability.

On Monday, public sector oil marketing companies reassured Jharkhand residents of stable petrol, diesel, and LPG supplies amidst recent price hikes. This announcement follows a rise of Rs 3 per litre in fuel prices, prompted by increased global crude oil costs linked to the West Asia conflict.

In a statement, Pradip Paul, the state-level coordinator for oil marketing companies in Jharkhand, confirmed that the supply of essential petroleum products remains uninterrupted. The seamless operation of supply chains—from terminals to retail outlets—ensures steady fuel availability.

The industry highlighted ongoing monitoring and smooth replenishment of fuel stocks, alongside prioritizing LPG for domestic users. They urge the public to maintain regular consumption patterns and trust official communication for verified information on fuel availability.
