Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC) regional office at Dhangadhi has started supplying petroleum products, brought through the Kailali transit point, to Kathmandu.

Chief of the Office Sharad Poudel said seven tankers loaded with diesel and one with aviation fuel were dispatched to Kathmandu today. The fuel supplied to Kathmandu includes 140 thousand litres diesel and 20 thousand litres aviation fuel.

The NOC regional office sent the fuel to the Capital although the Far-west Region itself continues to reel under fuel shortage.
