Imphal: Manipur governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla, on Friday, reviewed the stock position of petroleum fuel (Petrol/ Diesel and ATF) and LPG in the state which had been depleting on account of transit bottlenecks arising from frequent landslides on both NH-2 and NH-37, the two crucial lifelines for the state, in a meeting with all stakeholders on 29th August 2025.
To replenish the stock and ensure adequate availability of fuel for the state’s domestic and commercial requirements, it was decided that the state CAF and PD department, in close coordination with state police and Indian Oil Cooperation Limited, will arrange a Special Convoy exclusively for bringing in petroleum fuel and LPG from Jiribam.
It included MS petrol and HDS deisel — 158 tanker trucks, ATF Aeroplane Fuel — 5 tanker trucks and LPG — 29 tanker trucks.
Taking immediate measures, the aforesaid trucks have already left Jiribam for Imphal in the early morning of Saturday and are expected to reach Imphal within the next two to three days, said the governor’s secretariat.
The state government assured that it will take all necessary measures to meet all fuel requirements for the people of the state.
