TANGAIL, March 30, 2026 (BSS) - A mobile court fined Taka 25,000 to Elenga 
Filling Station in Kalihati upazila of the district for storing 16,000 liters 
of fuel oil beyond the permissible limits and failing to maintain the 
necessary documentation.

The operation was carried out by Assistant Commissioner and Executive 
Magistrate Md. Sajibul Islam Shuvo, who led the drive at the station on 
Monday afternoon. As part of ongoing monitoring efforts, the mobile court 
inspected various filling stations across the district to ensure compliance 
with fuel storage regulations.

During the inspection, authorities discovered that Elenga Filling Station was 
storing an excess of fuel, including approximately 10,000 liters of diesel,

the time. The owner of the filling station was further fined Taka 25,000 for 
not maintaining an octane calibration chart, an essential document for the 
proper measurement of fuel quality and quantity.
