Moreover, oil companies are making consistent efforts to ensure an uninterrupted supply, so that regular consumers do not face any inconveniences.
According to the statement, Saini has instructed all deputy commissioners and superintendents of police in the state to take strict action immediately upon receiving any complaints related to theft, black marketing, or hoarding.
