The government on Tuesday said there is no shortage of LPG in the country and supplies have stabilised after recent concerns. Officials said oil refineries have increased LPG production by about 10% following earlier directions from authorities. All refineries are now running at full capacity to maintain supply. The government has also invoked provisions of the Essential Commodities Act to prevent hoarding and ensure proper distribution. The monitoring period for LPG supply has been extended from 21 days to 25 days. “There was a temporary concern, but the situation has been resolved now,” government sources said. Officials also urged people not to believe unverified claims on social media. (PC: India Today)
