For the second consecutive day yesterday 6th September, not only was there a shortage of diesel at the petrol bunks but there was also a shortage of petrol too. It is known that there are petrol bunks belonging to Bharat petroleum in several places in Chennai like Nungambakkam, Purasawalkam, Egmore, Anna Salai, Mylapore etc. The petrol bunks in these localities are having shortage of fuels now.
