Andhra Pradesh fuel queues ease on Tuesday; dealers say oil firms’ ‘no-credit’ policy was trigger

Fuel supply across the State began stabilising on Tuesday (April 28, 2026), after widespread disruptions, long queues and panic buying at petrol bunks. Many petrol bunks have resumed operations as authorities stepped up to address the issue.

In Visakhapatnam, fuel availability across the city showed clear signs of improvement on Tuesday. Compared to Monday (April 27, 2026), queues at petrol bunks were significantly shorter by Tuesday morning. Except for a few outlets at major junctions such as Siripuram, Appughar, NAD Junction and Sheela Nagar, most fuel stations had returned to normalcy by the afternoon.
