Is there really no petrol in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands? A man named Shivam Vahia claimed in a viral video on August 26, that the union territory has run out of petrol. He described visiting two Indian Oil outlets and one Hindustan Petroleum outlet in Port Blair, only to find no fuel available. Standing outside an Indian Oil outlet, Vahia mentioned locals telling him this shortage happens frequently. However, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) fact-checked the claim, stating they do not have any retail outlets in the Andaman & Nicobar Islands, including Port Blair. Earthquake in Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Quake of Magnitude 4.4 on Richter Scale Jolts Union Territory.
