Rush for fuel continues despite assurances, LPG issues put on back burner

The rush for fuel in and around Hyderabad has baffled oil industry officials as the situation continued well into Wednesday night despite the three oil national marketing companies pumping in additional stocks.

“We have pumped in 1.5 times more stocks,” a senior official of one of the companies, who did not wish to be named, said, hoping for the customer rush to slow down considerably by Thursday evening.
