Abstract

The article focuses on Bangladesh lifting fuel sale restrictions ahead of the Eid-ul-Fitr holidays to ensure adequate supplies for transportation and irrigation. After a nine-day rationing period triggered by Middle East tensions, fuel distribution will now meet demand without caps, supported by incoming shipments at Chattogram port. Despite rising global oil prices, the government led by Prime Minister Tarique Rahman has chosen not to increase domestic fuel prices for the time being. Additionally, Bangladesh is seeking to strengthen fuel supplies by requesting increased diesel deliveries from India via a cross-border pipeline and considering purchases of fuels refined from Russian crude in third countries.
