RAJKOT: Close to 56,000 kilo litres of high-speed diesel leaked out near Deendayal Port Trust (DPT) following an alleged pilferage attempt.
The leakage happened in the pipeline of state-run Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) pipeline that originates at the oil jetty at the Kandla port on Sunday early morning. It took about 12 hours of constant effort by DPT’s fire department team to plug the leakage and suck the spilt diesel, officials said.
