Amid concerns over global supply disruptions due to tensions in West Asia, the Government of India has activated an emergency strategy to ensure that domestic LPG supply remains uninterrupted.
A high-level meeting chaired by Union Home Secretary Govind Mohan included officials from the Petroleum, Information & Broadcasting, and Consumer Affairs ministries. The focus of the meeting was to prevent panic buying, curb black marketing, and counter misinformation regarding LPG availability.
Under the LPG Control Order, refineries and petrochemical complexes have been directed to maximize LPG production and prioritize supply for domestic cylinders.
Authorities have also asked states to strengthen security around LPG bottling plants, warehouses, and transport networks. Strict action has been warned against hoarding or diverting domestic cylinders for commercial use.
Meanwhile, a 24×7 control room has been activated to monitor supply and counter fake news circulating on social media.
Despite concerns, officials say no nationwide LPG shortage has been reported so far, although delays and restrictions on some commercial supply have been observed in certain areas.
The government’s priority is clear — household kitchens first, commercial usage later.
