Niali Faces Fuel Crisis as Four Petrol Pumps Remain Closed
Niali in Odisha experiences a fuel crisis with four petrol pumps shut, causing public panic and long queues at the only operational station. The situation is exacerbated by a recent ₹3 increase in fuel prices, which has led to fears of a worsening shortage.

In Niali, Cuttack district, four petrol pumps have been closed for three days, resulting in substantial public distress and long lines at the only functioning pump on State Highway-60. Despite a ₹3 increase in fuel prices, people are gathering in large numbers, with many bringing containers to collect fuel.
The rush intensified after news spread of the closures, leading to an uncontrolled crowd at the operational station, where customers have been waiting for extended periods. This situation reflects the impact of supply disruptions in the region, raising concerns about fuel availability in the coming days.
