The government is working to ensure a three-month stock of all types of fuel amid the ongoing global energy crisis, State Minister for Power, Energy and Mineral Resources Anindya Islam Amit said recently. ‘We have identi?ed new sources and signed agreements with several suppliers.
if implemented, we are ready to procure fuel for the next three months,’ he said while talking to reporters at Secretariat. Bangladesh has already taken preparation to secure fuel supply particularly diesel from alternative sources after some international suppliers declared force measure due to the global situation, he said.
the government has already ensured three months’ supply of petrol and octane while preparations are complete to meet April’s diesel demand, he added. Most of the country’s fuel demand is being met without disruption, said the state minister.
