The government has formed vigilance teams in all districts to oversee the supply of fuel, according to a press release issued Friday by the Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral Resources. The initiative aims to prevent illegal hoarding of fuel. The ministry has also announced rewards for informants who provide verified information on such practices. Citizens are urged to submit precise complaints or suggestions to assist the authorities in ensuring fair distribution and preventing malpractice. As in March 27, a total of 293 operations and mobile court actions have been conducted across 62 districts to monitor fuel supply. These actions have resulted in 78 cases filed and a total fine of Tk 315,550. Magistrates from the ministry continue to conduct mobile courts at various locations in Dhaka daily, and operations will continue in Dhaka and surrounding areas tomorrow. The public is encouraged to contact the vigilance teams if they notice any irregularities or suspicious activities.
