AGARTALA, Feb 8 (TIWN): On the one hand where the state is yet reeling under the continuous threat of petrol crisis, the so called efficient government of Manik Sarkar is busy in hoisting bike rally ahead of the election wasting litres of petrol’s to woo the voters. Despite of taking any action to curb petrol crisis from the state, the authority is busy in hoisting bike rally and attending election rallies.Though for few days the consumers were relieved from the prolonged petrol crisis, the capital is yet again hit with massive petrol crisis.Internet connectivity failure has led to a transport fuel crisis in Tripura for the past few days, and the state government is reluctant to seek any intervention.The sources said that as the Internet connectivity is down, the IOCL officials are unable to get clearances online from their authorities in Guwahati. In absence of clearances from the IOCL authorities, the hundreds of oil tankers, carrying petrol and diesel, are unable to move to different parts of Tripura including capital city Agartala, 200 km from Dharmanagar.

Fuel crisis continues to suffer the state with board of ‘No Petrol’ hanging in front of the major petrol pumps.
