Sri Lanka rolls out fuel rationing system amid ongoing conflict

Sri Lanka Sunday rolled out a fuel rationing system through QR code in view of a possible crisis situation due to the ongoing conflict in West Asia.

The QR rationing is introduced as a measure in view of hoarding by the consumers despite the continuous availability of enough fuel for 4 months, it said. The rationing comes after the government announced this week that it was hopeful of securing fuel supplies from India and Russia.
