The Tripura government has imposed restrictions on sale of petrol and diesel from Wednesday.
Why are restrictions imposed?
A massive landslide in Assam’s Jatinga region has disrupted the goods train movement to Tripura, leading to the fuel shortage. Passenger train movement started on April 26 after restoration work. However, train service through Jatinga still remains closed during the night.
The disruption in train services has led to a notable decrease in the availability of petrol and diesel in the state, prompting the authorities to regulate the sale of these essential fuels.
