can anyone tell me what is the price of Octane, Petrol and Diesel in Bangladesh at the current moment. When I went to BD the last time (2 years ago), Octane was TK 35 per liter.......but someone told me that Octane is now TK 55 per liter. is this true? I was really surprised to hear that gas prices in BD went up so high in 2 years.
