Srinagar, May 18: The overall fuel supply position in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir continues to remain stable and adequate, a top official of the Oil Industry said on Monday.
Oil Industry’s State Level Coordinator, Himanshu Sharma said the entire supply chain, including terminals, depots, and retail outlets, is functioning efficiently without any disruption.
In a statement issued here, Sharma informed that Public Sector Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) have confirmed that the availability of essential petroleum products, including petrol, diesel, and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), remains normal and uninterrupted across Jammu and Kashmir. He said fuel stocks are being continuously monitored, and replenishment activities are progressing smoothly across all locations.
“LPG supplies to domestic consumers are being prioritised and are being maintained normally across the Union Territory. Necessary steps are being taken to ensure uninterrupted delivery to all consumers,” Sharma said.
He said the Oil Industry is maintaining close coordination on logistics, stock movement, and retail operations to ensure seamless availability of fuel across the region.
Appealing to citizens to avoid panic buying, Sharma advised the public to continue with normal consumption patterns and rely only on official communications issued by OMCs for accurate and verified information regarding fuel availability.
