West Bengal Exempts Essential Sectors from Diesel Container Supply Restrictions
The West Bengal government, led by Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari, has exempted essential sectors—including agriculture, healthcare, food supply, public services, and tea gardens—from recent restrictions on diesel supply in containers. This decision aims to alleviate operational difficulties faced by farmers, hospitals, and emergency services. Daily diesel purchase limits for these sectors have been relaxed, and beneficiaries can now access fuel by presenting basic identification documents at fuel stations, ensuring uninterrupted essential services and economic activities.
