Srinagar, Aug 23 (IBNS) : A joint delegation of Jammu Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Jammu Transporters’ Union and Oil Tanker Owners’ Association called on Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti here on Monday evening to discuss various issues confronting them in the light of the prevailing disturbances in ashmir, an official spokesman said.

“Responding to the security concerns raised by the Oil Tankers Association, the Chief Minister assured them of adequate security and asked them to immediately resume fuel supplies to Kashmir,” the spokesman said.

The Oil Tanker Owners Association was on strike since Saturday evening following mob attacks on  tanker drivers and cleaners in the restive valley.

Following the assurance by the Chief Minister, the Oil Tanker Owners Association decided to call off the strike and resume fuel supplies to the Valley from Tuesday.

“The Oil Tanker Owners Association was told that the state Government would provide them special helpline numbers so that they can immediately get in touch with the authorities in case of any emergency,” the spokesman said.
