NEW DELHI: In some relief to the people hit by the oil sector strike, state-run Bharat Petroleum Corp on Friday said it would resume fuel supplies at all locations starting this evening, as more than 70% of the striking employees returned to work.
OIL India Ltd Officers Association has also called off its strike.
"Over 70% of the people have resumed work in marketing. By this evening, we will be able to resume fuel supply at all locations.... To make up for the backlog we would work on Saturday and Sunday too," BPCL Director (Marketing) S Radhakrishnan said in the capital.
Indian Oil Corp (IOC) chairman Sarthak Behuria, at a media briefing, also condemned the strike
“We will break the strike; officers not reporting to work tomorrow and Sunday will be dismissed; administrative action like arrest and chargesheet will be taken,” the IOC chairman said.
“No question of conceding officers' demands; will attempt to restore normalcy by Monday,” Behuria added.
BPCL accounts for 25% of the petro goods market in the country, while HPCL accounts for 27% and IOC the rest.
HPCL has been functioning normally throughout.
