IMPHAL, July 8: The State has petrol and diesel stock for minimum 15 days at the Oil Depot of Indian Oil Corporation at Chingmeirong excluding the standing stock of above 100 oil tankers at ISBT, Khuman Lampak, according to a source.  

Due to the bandh called by Kuki State Demand Committee which started this morning from 5 against the State and Centre government’s failure to start the political dialogue with the Kuki UG outfits who have signed for the tripartite talk, the empty oil tankers did not leave Imphal for the refill, it said.  

The oil tankers could have gone for refill if there was road opening patrol (ROP) by security forces on National Highway No 2 (Imphal-Dimapur Road) and if the number of the CRPF escorts were increased, it further said.

However, petrol and diesel were unloaded at the petrol pumps in the state as usual and so the oil pumps will be open tomorrow, it said.
