India runs out of fuel...

[abhijit_reddevil]

Very bad news, my car has only half tank full and I could not get petrol anywhere in the morning.... Are govt officials (PSU and state) always good for nothing?

Army has been kept on standby to run refineries if required.
I never though a strike would have such an impact.

Thats y i always keep enough petrol in my bike. My bike still has 9 litres of petrol .enough for 10days .i went to fill up more but the queue was too long so returned back.
