An earlier report of our Staff Correspondent said : Normal life In the capital remained partially parallsed Sunday causing sufferings of the people as buses, minibuses and tempos stayed off the rood*, Acute fuel crisis caused by short supply aggravated the situation as most of other motorised vehicles exempted from the strike, were also forced to stay off the roads.
The fuel scarcity was caused as the drivers of about 200 tank lorries Joined the strike. The city’s nearly 60 filling sta tlons became almost dry due to lack of supplies. Long queues of cars and baby taxis were seen In filling stations but most of them were found returning disappointed.
Some unscrupulous traders charged as high as 40 taka a litre of patrol.
There was an attempt by the Petroleum Corporation to supply fuel to the filling stations from the God nail depot under special arrangement with police escort. But the bid was foiled as some picketers hurled a bomb at a tank-lorry near Adamjee on its way to Dhaka. The bombed tank-lorry fell into a road side ditch and its driver was seriously injured. Petroleum Corporation sources said.
