Filling station one, oil line 1 thousand 11 go

A filling station at Paribaug in the capital. 518 motorcycles and 493 private cars are waiting for oil here on Friday at 11 am. A total of 1 thousand 11 vehicles are lined up at this station.
Another filling station at Matsya Bhavan also has a similar number of waiting vehicles. There are 422 motorcycles and 358 private cars in line to get oil at 10 am.
Counting the number of vehicles shows how long the waiting line for oil is. And how many hours each one has to wait.
Akhtar Hossain, a private car driver at the Meghna model filling station in Paribag, said, “If we don’t get oil, we won’t have jobs, no matter how hard it is, we have to get oil.” After that, I have to do duty again. Akhtar said that he stood in line for oil at around 10 o’clock on Thursday night. Even today at 11 o’clock he did not get oil. As he spoke, three more cars lined up for oil in front of him.
Saiful Islam, a motorcycle driver, is waiting as much as Akhtar Hossain. Talked to this driver at Ramna filling station in Matsya Bhavan around 10:30 am today. He said that he stood in line at 9:30 pm yesterday. It is now past 10:30 am. Still did not get oil. According to the pump, you can get oil after noon.
The driver of this motorcycle said, “I am working.” Friday will be a day off to rest, give time to family, but since this oil crisis started I can’t do anything else. The whole night on Thursday and the whole day on Friday were spent to collect the oil. I don’t know when I will get rid of this suffering.
Saiful Islam alleged that the government says there is no oil crisis, but it is a different picture when you come to the filling station.
Another driver, Abdur Rahim, is not getting oil despite standing for a long time at this filling station. He told Prothom Alo that he stood in line at 9 pm yesterday. Even after 11 o’clock today, he did not get the oil. You don’t know when you will get it.
Abdur Rahim complained that the government and ministers all say that there is no oil crisis. More oil is coming. But the reality at the pump is different.
Drivers said that queues for oil at filling stations are increasing instead of decreasing.
