Sri Lanka Railway will enter into an agreement with the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation to transport fuel by train.
The Transport Ministry and the Petroleum Resources Development Ministry will submit a joint proposal to the Cabinet, seeking approval for the arrangement, a Transport Ministry official said.
