K. Vanlalvena appeals for oil depot in state

Aizawl, 14 Jan (Zoram News) : Rajya Sabha MP Pu K.Vanlalvena appealed to Union Secretary of Petroleum and Natural Gas Pankaj Jain IAS for an oil depot in two places, Bairabi and Sihhmui in Mizoram.

K.Vanlalvena communicated how the state often faces oil crisis during monsoon periods as it is located in a hilly area. If there is any road damage in Meghalaya or North Cachar hills, the tankers carrying oil to Mizoram always face a crisis, he said.

There is a high need for an oil depot where petrol and diesel can be stored during summer. He said Bairabi and Sihhmui would be favourable locations as the railways' construction is ongoing in these areas.

In October last year, Chief minister Zoramthanga convened a meeting with officials of Indian Oil Corporation Ltd and reviewed proposals of the company for setting up a new oil depot. It would be rail-fed when construction of the broad gauge railway line between Bairabi and Sairang is completed, officials said.

Mizoram does not have any oil depot, and most supplies come from Assam. Officials said that filing stations across the state could store fuels only for over five days to meet the requirements of the consumers.

The Chief Minister and IOCL officials, during the meeting, also reviewed the proposal for the expansion and upgrade of the existing gas bottling plant at Mualkhang near Aizawl.
