The central government on Wednesday assured that India will maintain 100% domestic LPG supply despite the ongoing West Asia crisis. Officials asked people not to panic or hoard cooking gas cylinders. The government has increased the minimum gap for booking LPG cylinders from 21 to 25 days to prevent panic buying. An inter-ministerial panel said energy imports are continuing from different sources. Natural gas is being redirected to increase LPG production. Refineries have also been asked to boost LPG output. A three-member committee will review the demands of restaurants and hotels facing supply concerns. The government said it is closely monitoring the situation to ensure steady fuel supply. (PC: PTI)
