The interim government has decided to reduce fuel oil prices from September, the Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation's (BPC) has said.

Besides, in a move to control high inflation, the government has also decided to curb the BPC's profits, due to which fuel oil prices are expected to decline further in the coming months.
