Assures uninterrupted supply
Srinagar, May 18: The Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir continues to enjoy a stable and sufficient supply of fuel, officials from the oil industry said on Monday.
Himanshu Sharma, State Level Coordinator of the Oil Industry, assured residents that the entire fuel supply chain—including terminals, depots, and retail outlets—is functioning smoothly without any disruptions.
In a statement issued here, Sharma informed that Public Sector Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) have confirmed the availability of essential petroleum products, including petrol, diesel, and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), remains normal and uninterrupted across the region. He said fuel stocks are being monitored continuously and replenishment activities are proceeding seamlessly.
Addressing concerns about LPG supplies, Sharma said that domestic LPG deliveries are being prioritized and maintained at regular levels across Jammu and Kashmir. Necessary measures are in place to ensure that all consumers receive their supplies without interruption.
“The oil industry is working closely with logistics providers and retail outlets to coordinate stock movement and ensure seamless availability of fuel throughout the region,” he said.
Sharma urged citizens to avoid panic buying and to continue their normal fuel consumption patterns. He advised the public to rely solely on official communications from OMCs for accurate and verified updates regarding fuel availability, emphasizing that there is no cause for concern.
