Fuel will be issued on an odd-even basis starting today (18), according to Ceylon Petroleum Corporation ( CPC).

Under the new system, vehicles with number plates ending in even numbers or zero will be allowed to obtain fuel on even-numbered days, while those with odd-numbered plates can refuel on odd-numbered days.

The announcement was made by the Chairman of CPC D.J. Rajakaruna, as part of measures introduced to manage fuel distribution efficiently amid current supply challenges.
