Prison Department Fuel Station Reopens in Coimbatore

The prison department of Tamil Nadu has announced that its petrol bunk located in Coimbatore is now operational again. The facility, which supplies fuel to departmental vehicles and the public, had been closed for an unspecified duration. Officials said the reopening follows routine maintenance and compliance checks. No further details on the cause of the earlier shutdown were provided. The department expects the bunk to serve both its own logistical needs and local commuters.

The resumption of service is expected to ease fuel procurement for prison transport units and reduce reliance on external stations. Local commuters have also welcomed the reopening, noting the convenience of an additional fuel outlet in the area.

Authorities have not disclosed any changes to pricing or operating hours, but have confirmed that the bunk will continue to adhere to standard safety and regulatory norms.
