In the light of the growing tensions with India after the attack of the Pahalgama, the federal government has ordered the oil and refinery companies to guarantee the maximum availability of diesel and fuel for airplanes, Express News reported Friday.
The sources within the oil marketing companies confirmed that the directive was issued shortly after the Pahalgam incident intensified the regional security environment.
The General Directorate of Petroleum has ordered PSO and other importers that accelerate oil imports and maintain high reserves to prevent supply interruption in case of emergency.
Petroleum refineries have been told and marketing companies that ensure wide amounts of high -speed and fuel diesel for airplanes specifically.
Petroleum officials declared that current fuel stocks, including aviation fuels and the degree of transport, are sufficient, but precautionary measures are being implemented under emergency protocols.
The tensions between India and Pakistan are once again rising with fears of a greater escalation after the mortal attack of the pahalgama in Jammu and Cashmira illegally occupied (Iiojk).
India, in a unilateral movement, suspended the Treaty of the Water of the Indo, degraded diplomatic relations, ordered the Pakistani to leave India and sealed the border crossing of Attari-Wagah, stopping civil movement and commerce.
In response, Pakistan warned that any attempt at India to block water flow in Pakistan would be treated as an act of war. The statement followed a high -level NSC meeting, which also approved the closure of the Wagah border crossing.
