India sends 7,000 tonnes diesel to Bangladesh

NEW DELHI: Bangladesh is receiving a fresh consignment of 7,000 tonnes of diesel through a pipeline from India’s Numaligarh refinery, with energy minister Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku Monday telling Parliament that fuel hoarding — not a supply shortage amid the West Asia crisis — is the bigger concern.The fuel began arriving through the India-Bangladesh Friendship Pipeline Saturday evening and is expected to be fully delivered by Tuesday. Earlier, 15,000 tonnes were brought via the pipeline, after a 5,000-tonne shipment from March 25, to meet the needs of Bangladesh, heavily dependent on Gulf imports.Officials said Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation is prioritising pipeline imports alongside sea routes, with supply steady.
