Imphal, October 17 2014 :
SK oil dealers of four districts have expressed their dismay in which allocation order was issued by the Consumers Affairs, Food and Public Distribution for the third quarter, covering from October to December.
The allocation order was issued on October 14.The four districts are Bishnupur, Senapati, Tamenglong and Ukhrul.
The allocation order has been issued not on perorate basis, they said and added that this has given rise to more confusion.
Moreover such a ham-handed manner of issuing the allocation order smacks of discrimination, added the agents.
Citing examples they said that ZV Nepolean of Ukhrul was allocated 52 KL of SK oil in the last allocation for the second quarter but this time the quantity of the fuel has come down to 12 KL.
On the other hand, VJ Tangkhul which was allocated 48 KL in the last quarter has been allocated 88 KL this time.
In Senapati too Kerosene Depot was allocated 48 KL in the last quarter but this time it has been allocated 88 KL while Chongjahoi which was allocated 52 KL has been allocated 12 KL this time.
The same discrepancy is also seen in the three other districts too, they said.
